Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • living conditions for occupiers of nearby dwellings, with particular regard to privacy and outlook

What decided it

The proposal would be of similar scale and design to existing extensions either side, constructed from matching brickwork, and would not have unacceptable effects on neighbouring privacy or outlook due to substantial garden separation distances and the modest height and depth of the infill extension.
