Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect on the character and appearance of the host property and the area
  • The effect upon the living conditions of the occupiers of the neighbouring residential properties at 8 and 10 New Lane, with particular regard to outlook
  • The effect upon the living conditions of the occupants of the appeal property, having particular regard to outdoor amenity space provision

What decided it

The proposed extension would result in an incongruous and dominant form of development that would significantly harm the character and appearance of the host property and terrace, and would appear dominant and oppressive to neighbouring occupiers, contrary to development plan policies and the NPPF.
