Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the appeal proposal upon the character and appearance of the recipient building and the wider terrace of which it forms part, and whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Craneswater and Eastern Parade Conservation Area
  • The effect of the proposal upon the living conditions of the occupants of 32 Whitwell Road, with specific reference to light and outlook

What decided it

The extension would be subordinate in form to the host dwelling and would preserve the character and appearance of the conservation area while not materially harming the living conditions of the neighbouring property.
