Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the existing property and on the local area
  • The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the neighbours at No 98 Guibal Road, with particular regard to overlooking and loss of privacy

What decided it

The two storey rear extension would be overly large in relation to the existing property's scale and proportions, harming both local character and the living conditions of neighbours through overlooking and loss of privacy.
