Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effects of varying the disputed condition on living conditions for the occupiers of 71 Cavendish Road, with particular regard to loss of daylight and sunlight and whether or not the proposed extension would be overbearing
  • The effects of varying the disputed condition on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The limited increase in extension depth of 0.275m would not cause material harm to neighbouring living conditions or the character and appearance of the area given the generous separation distances and design compatibility with the approved scheme.
