Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposals on the character and appearance of the local area
- The effect of the proposals on the amenities of surrounding neighbours with particular regard to outlook, overlooking and loss of privacy
- The effect of the proposals on the living conditions of the host building with particular regard to outlook, overlooking and loss of privacy and flood risk
- The effect of the proposed garage and garden structure on the availability of parking
What decided it
The unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the local area combined with unacceptable impacts on the living conditions of surrounding residents and future residents of the host property outweighed any benefits from improved cycle storage and parking arrangements.
