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 occupiers of neighbouring dwellings, with particular regard to outlook, privacy and noise and disturbance
What decided it
The development would introduce a visually incongruous and prominent feature that would significantly harm the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through overbearing bulk, loss of outlook, overlooking and noise disturbance.
