Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The impact of the proposal upon the amenity of neighbouring occupiers with regard to overlooking

What decided it

The substantial separation distances between inter-visible windows (34.2 and 35.6 metres) and the length of the neighbouring gardens meant that only a small portion of the furthest end of the gardens would experience increased overlooking, which would not have a significantly detrimental effect on residential amenity.
