Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed rear extension on the character and appearance of the host property, a locally-listed building, and on the Sun in the Sands Conservation Area
  • Living conditions for the occupiers of the neighbouring property at 122 Shooters Hill Road, with particular regard to outlook and whether or not it would lead to an unacceptable sense of enclosure

What decided it

The proposed rear extension would cause unacceptable harm to the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through loss of outlook and increased sense of enclosure, conflicting with the development plan, whereas the change of use to a single dwellinghouse was acceptable and severable.
