Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the surrounding area
  • The living conditions of future occupiers, with particular regard to the provision of internal floorspace and external amenity space

What decided it

The significant adverse effect on character and appearance combined with inadequate living conditions for future occupiers, particularly the substandard internal floorspace of Flat C and the poor usability of Flat B's external amenity space, meant the proposal failed to accord with the development plan.
