Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effects of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of 3 and 5 Meldon Road
- The effects of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The two-storey extension causes unacceptable harm to the living conditions of neighbouring residential occupiers through overbearing impact and diminished outlook, and harms the character and appearance of the area, conflicting with development plan policies and the Framework with no material considerations to outweigh this harm.
Plan policies cited: Policy SP1, Policy DM1, Policy DC1.1, Policy DC1.2, Policy DC1.4, Policy DC1.3
