Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupants of 47 and 49 Cranleigh Court Road, with regard to light and outlook
  • Whether the proposed development would provide adequate accommodation for future occupants, with regard to the size and shape of the private outdoor space

What decided it

The proposed development fails on three independent grounds: it damages the character and appearance of the area by being out of keeping with the spacious plot pattern; it unacceptably harms the living conditions of neighbouring occupants through overbearing impact and loss of light; and it fails to provide adequate private outdoor space for future occupants.
