Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the condition requiring the annexe to remain permanently in the same ownership as 12 Trimpley Lane is reasonable or necessary in the interests of the character and appearance of the area
- Whether the condition is reasonable or necessary in the interests of the living conditions of existing and future occupiers, in respect of privacy and private amenity space
What decided it
The condition is reasonable and necessary because removing it would create a separate planning unit in close proximity to the main dwelling, resulting in cramped, high-density development harmful to the area's character and causing privacy and amenity harm to both existing and future occupiers.
