Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of occupiers of adjoining dwellings
  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host dwelling, host terrace and surrounding area

What decided it

The unacceptable adverse effect on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through overbearing impact, loss of outlook and reduction in daylight and sunlight, combined with the extension being a dominant and incongruous feature on the host terrace.
