Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers at No 287 St Neots Road, with specific regard to privacy
  • the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
  • whether the development is in an appropriate location, with particular regard to the adopted development plan spatial strategy and access to shops, services, community facilities and transport choices other than the private car

What decided it

The significant harm to the living conditions of the neighbouring occupier at No 287 St Neots Road through loss of privacy from the proposed bedroom windows, which could not be adequately mitigated, was sufficient to justify dismissal of the appeal.
