Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- the living conditions of the neighbours at 12 Burnop Terrace in terms of light, outlook and privacy
What decided it
The proposal would unacceptably harm both the character and appearance of the area as an incongruous first-floor extension and the living conditions of neighbours at 12 Burnop Terrace through significant reduction in light and outlook.
