Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of neighbouring occupants, in terms of outlook, enclosure and light
- the effect on protected species
What decided it
The significant harm to the living conditions of neighbouring occupants through loss of outlook and light and increased sense of enclosure, which would conflict with the development plan and was not outweighed by the appellant's personal circumstances.
The appellant's desire to increase living space to accommodate a growing family did not outweigh the permanent harm to neighbouring living conditions.
