Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect that removing Condition 4 would have on the living conditions of 23 Stumperlowe Park Road with regard to overlooking and privacy

What decided it

The specific site circumstances and positioning of the dwellings, where the window overlooks primarily the adjacent property's roof with no actual loss of privacy, made the obscuration condition unreasonable and unnecessary under NPPF paragraph 56.

Framework references: 56, 130

Plan policies cited: Policy H14 of the Sheffield Unitary Development Plan (1998), Guideline 6 of the Designing House Extensions Supplementary Planning Guide
