Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host property and surrounding area
- The living conditions of future occupiers with regard to light and outlook
- Whether sufficient information has been submitted to assess the impact of the development upon nearby trees
What decided it
The detrimental effect on the character and appearance of the host property and surrounding area caused by the scale, massing and proportions of the proposed extension, combined with insufficient information to assess tree impacts, outweighed the modest housing benefits.
