Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • the living conditions of the neighbouring occupiers at 137 Woodland Avenue with regard to light and privacy

What decided it

The proposed extension's design—particularly its set down from the ridge line, hipped roof, and privacy screening—would prevent undue harm to character and appearance and neighbouring living conditions, thereby according with the development plan.
