Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect on the living conditions of neighbouring occupants, with respect to outlook and privacy
  • Whether the proposal would provide a suitable standard of accommodation

What decided it

The proposal would significantly harm the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of neighbouring occupants through loss of outlook and privacy, conflicting with the development plan in a way that material considerations, including fall-back positions, could not overcome.

Plan policies cited: Policy SP4, Policy DM10, Policy D3, Policy SP2.8, Policy SP4.1, Policy D6, Policy SP2.7, Policy DM1.2
