Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the living conditions of the occupiers of number 19 Larchwood Road, with particular regard to outlook and daylight

What decided it

The substantial separation distance between the dwellings, the presence of intervening boundary fencing, and the limited reduction in outlook and daylight meant the development would not cause unacceptable harm to the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers.
