Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • the effect of the proposal upon the living conditions of 134 Appletree Lane and 2 Dairy Lane, with respect to outlook

What decided it

The first floor extension and garage extension would cause unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the area and would have an unacceptable overbearing effect on neighbouring properties, contrary to Policies 39 and 40 of the Local Plan and the High Quality Design SPD.

Plan policies cited: Policy 39, Policy 40, High Quality Design Supplementary Planning Document paragraph 3.1.5, High Quality Design Supplementary Planning Document paragraph 3.1.6, High Quality Design Supplementary Planning Document paragraph 3.1.11(i), High Quality Design Supplementary Planning Document paragraph 3.1.11(iii), High Quality Design Supplementary Planning Document paragraph 3.1.7(iii)
