Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed extension on the living conditions of the occupier(s) of No. 33 Harbord Road with particular regard to outlook and access to natural light

What decided it

The proposed extension would unacceptably harm the outlook from the neighbouring property at No. 33 Harbord Road due to its excessive projection and dominance when viewed from that property's rear elevation and amenity area.
