Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host property
  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of the appeal property, with particular regard to privacy
  • whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the setting of the CA

What decided it

The proposed windows would harm the character and appearance of the building through loss of material and colour contrast and discordant design, and would create an unacceptable loss of privacy to occupiers without adequate mitigation measures.
