Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the host dwelling, and of the surrounding area
- the living conditions of the neighbouring residents at 279 and 283 The Roundway, with regard to outlook and whether or not it would be overbearing or create a sense of enclosure
What decided it
The substantial harm to the character and appearance of the area caused by the imbalanced side extension outweighed the absence of harm to neighbouring living conditions.
The absence of harm to neighbouring living conditions did not mitigate or outweigh the harm to the character and appearance of the area.
