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 No 8 and No 10 Mount Pleasant Road with regard to privacy

What decided it

The substantial glazing and outdoor balcony would cause unacceptable harm to both the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of neighbouring residents through loss of privacy and increased overlooking.

The private benefit of increased family accommodation did not outweigh the harm to character and appearance and the unacceptable harm to neighbouring living conditions through loss of privacy.
