Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effects of the proposal on the living conditions of occupiers of Nos 30 and 32 Conquest Road
- Whether the proposed dwellings would provide suitable living conditions to potential future occupiers
What decided it
The significant overlooking and loss of privacy that would be caused to occupiers of Nos 30 and 32 Conquest Road by the positioning of the proposed dwellings, which would fall short of the recommended separation distance and conflict with Policy EE1 of the development plan.
The benefits of providing 6 new dwellings and associated socio-economic benefits were outweighed by the substantial harm to the living conditions of existing occupiers of Nos 30 and 32 Conquest Road through overlooking and loss of privacy.
