Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect on the character and appearance of the appeal building and the street scene on Links Road
  • the effect on the living conditions of the occupiers of the adjacent dwelling at Number 10 Links Road
  • whether the proposal would result in an adverse effect on the public highway due to a reduction in off-street parking spaces at the property

What decided it

The proposal would create an unwelcome terracing effect and an oppressive tunnel effect to the side passage of the adjacent dwelling, resulting in unacceptable harm to both the character and appearance of the street scene and the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers.
