Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the neighbouring occupiers at 56 Brooklands Crescent in relation to privacy, and 60 Brooklands Crescent in relation to massing

What decided it

The proposed balcony would unacceptably harm the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through loss of privacy and overbearing massing, contrary to development plan policy.

Plan policies cited: Policy H14(c) of the Sheffield Unitary Development Plan (1998), Supplementary Planning Guidance on Designing House Extensions guidelines 5 and 6
