Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area, including the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB)
  • the living conditions of the occupants of No 312 Marlow Bottom Road, with particular regard to privacy, overshadowing and outlook

What decided it

The development accords with the development plan policies requiring high-quality design that respects character and appearance and preserves neighbouring amenities, with the boundary treatment and garden room not causing unacceptable harm to either the AONB or the living conditions of neighbouring occupants.

Plan policies cited: Policy DM30, Policy DM35, Policy DM36, Policy C9, Policy DM34
