Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposed development would provide adequate living conditions for future occupants, with particular regard to outlook and private amenity space
  • the effect of the development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupants in Heritage Court, with particular regard to noise and disturbance

What decided it

The unacceptable outlook from the bedrooms of the 2-bedroom flat, particularly the main bedroom with its angled rooflights and constricted dormer window, would result in poor living conditions for future occupants contrary to Policy EE1.

Plan policies cited: Policy EE1 of the Runnymede 2030 Local Plan
