Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
  • the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties

What decided it

The proposed dwelling's siting to the rear of the host property, combined with lowered ground levels, retained boundary planting, and design measures to prevent overlooking, would preserve both the character of the conservation area and the living conditions of neighbouring properties.
