- Inspector
- Rafferty C
Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and surrounding area
- the living conditions of future occupiers with particular regard to floorspace provision, outlook and light
- the living conditions of occupiers of No. 100 London Road with particular regards to light
- fire safety
What decided it
The significant adverse effect on living conditions of future occupiers with regards to outlook and light, combined with insufficient information on fire safety and neighbour impact, meant the proposal failed to accord with the development plan.
