Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the host property and surrounding area
the living conditions of the occupiers of 9 Dealtry Road, with particular regard to privacy

What decided it

The rear dormer window's position behind the rear elevation of the neighbouring property and its orientation away from the garden, combined with existing overlooking from surrounding properties, meant no significant loss of privacy would occur.

What an account adds

Draw a red line around your site and the appraisal follows.

Landscape and environment. Green belt, national parks and national landscapes, SSSIs, ancient woodland, SPA, SAC and Ramsar sites, nutrient catchments.
Flooding. Flood zones 2 and 3, surface water, and both again with climate change.
Transport. The 800 metre station catchment and service frequency, bus stops with their weekday frequency, the cycle network, and the Framework’s transport tests measured for the site.
