Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host property and the surrounding area
- The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupants of No.76 Hall Park Avenue, with particular reference to outlook
What decided it
The proposed development would eliminate the characteristic gap between semi-detached properties and create an overbearing, dominant structure that would harm both the street scene character and the outlook and amenity of the neighbouring property.
