Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed development would affect the character and appearance of the surrounding area, including trees within the site
  • Whether the proposed development would affect the living conditions of the occupants of 346 Bury Street West in relation to both daylight and sunlight, and outlook
  • Whether the proposed development would provide adequate drainage

What decided it

The substantial harm to the character and appearance of the surrounding area caused by the excessive bulk, scale and design of the proposed three-storey extension, which would be entirely out of character with the predominantly two-storey traditional suburban residential area.
