Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect of the proposed development upon the living conditions of occupiers of existing neighbouring properties with specific regard to light, outlook or privacy

What decided it

The proposed development accords with the development plan policies requiring extensions to be of appropriate size, scale, mass, form, siting, design and materials, and would not result in unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the area or the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers.

Plan policies cited: Policy HOU11, Policy DES4, Bishop's Stortford Neighbourhood Plan Policy HDP1, Bishop's Stortford Neighbourhood Plan Policy HDP2
