Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the Newington Green Conservation Area
- The living conditions of neighbouring occupiers at 30 and 32 Wolsey Road in relation to outlook and enclosure
What decided it
The proposal would cause less than substantial harm to the significance of the Newington Green Conservation Area by disrupting the uniform rear building line characteristic of the terrace, and would adversely affect the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers at 30 Wolsey Road through loss of outlook and increased enclosure.
