Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the site and the wider area
  • The living conditions of occupiers of the host property, with particular regard to garden provision
  • The living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, with particular regard to outlook

What decided it

The substantial size of the proposed outbuilding would fill a disproportionate part of the remaining garden space, appearing unduly cramped and dominant, thereby harming the character and appearance of the site and wider area and failing to provide adequate garden provision for the host property's occupiers.
