Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties having particular regard to outlook and the impact on sunlight to amenity spaces
  • The character and appearance of the area having particular regard to the significance of the Ravenscourt and Starch Green Conservation Area and locally listed Buildings of Merit

What decided it

The unacceptable harm to the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through the confining effect on outlook, which conflicts with development plan policies requiring respect for good neighbourliness and residential amenity principles.

Framework references: 130, 197, 203
