Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area, including the significance of Holly Grove Conservation Area
  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties, with particular regard to outlook and daylight/sunlight

What decided it

The rear location of the extension, entirely out of public view, combined with its subservient contemporary design and minimal impact on neighbouring living conditions, meant the development would preserve the conservation area and comply with relevant policies.

Plan policies cited: Policy P13, Policy P14, Policy P20, Policy P21, Policy P56, Policy HC1
