Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host property and the surrounding area
  • The living conditions of the occupiers of No. 18 Ambleside Road, with particular regard to privacy

What decided it

The outbuilding's position at the rear of the garden, screening by boundary fencing, retention of useable amenity space, and compliance with design guidance, combined with conditions restricting use to ancillary purposes and requiring approved drainage and boundary details, rendered the proposal acceptable in planning terms.
