Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers with regard to light and outlook
  • Whether the proposal would preserve a Grade II listed building, 11 East Beach, and any of the features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses and the extent to which it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Lytham Conservation Area

What decided it

The material adverse effect on neighbouring living conditions through loss of daylight and outlook to the first-floor bedroom window outweighed the heritage acceptability of the proposal.
