Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the third storey of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupants of surrounding residential properties, with specific regard to outlook

What decided it

The significant harm caused by the third storey to the outlook and living conditions of occupants of surrounding residential properties, particularly at no. 17 Quadrant Road, outweighs the moderate benefits of increased housing supply and family-sized units.
