Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the living conditions of the occupants of 35 and 39 Lodden Avenue, with regard to outlook and sunlight
  • The character and appearance of the host dwelling and the surrounding area

What decided it

The combination of significant harm to neighbouring residential amenity through overbearing outlook and loss of sunlight, and unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the terrace, which together outweighed any benefits to the occupants.

The benefits of extended living space and sustainable development to the occupants were outweighed by the significant harm to neighbouring living conditions and the unacceptable harm to character and appearance.
