Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the host building, including the surrounding locality
- The living conditions of current and future neighbouring occupiers of No.2 Strafford Road as a result of sense of enclosure
What decided it
The single storey, flat-roofed design of the extension is sufficiently subservient to the host building and maintains the stepped appearance characteristic of the terrace, while the neighbouring garden remains sufficiently long and open to avoid unacceptable harm from enclosure.
