- residential · Householder developments
- Inspector
- White P
Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether it has been demonstrated that the proposed development can be considered ancillary to the dwelling rather than an independent dwelling
- The effects of the development on the living conditions of nearby residents
- The effects of the development on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The proposed building would function as an independent dwelling rather than an ancillary annexe, and would cause unacceptable harm to the living conditions of neighbouring residents through loss of privacy and increased intervisibility.
