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 occupants of 44 and 46 Central Drive with regard to privacy, and 46 Central Drive with regard to outlook and light
- The living conditions of future occupiers of the dwelling with regard to internal accommodation and external amenity space
What decided it
The cumulative harm to character and appearance, neighbouring living conditions regarding outlook and light, and inadequate internal accommodation and external amenity space for future occupiers could not be justified by the provision of additional housing.
