Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Thorney Hedge Conservation Area
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of 6 Silver Crescent in respect of their outlook and the levels of daylight and sunlight afforded to that property
What decided it
The proposed extension would preserve the character and appearance of the Conservation Area as the rear extensions are not visible from the street and accord with the pattern of other nearby rear extensions, while not materially harming the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers.
