Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
  • The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of No 39 and 43 Colne Avenue with particular reference to outlook and light
  • Whether the proposed development would be likely to increase the likelihood of flooding in the area

What decided it

The side extension would be unduly prominent in the street scene and would unacceptably harm the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through loss of light and outlook, combined with inadequate flood risk mitigation details.
