Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the development upon the character and appearance of the surrounding area
  • the effect of the development upon the living conditions of the occupiers of the neighbouring properties of Seaton Grove and Lark Rise, with particular reference to outlook and privacy

What decided it

The fallback position of permitted development rights for a similarly proportioned dormer window meant the appeal scheme would not result in notably greater loss of outlook or harm to neighbours compared to what could be built without permission.

Plan policies cited: Policy 8 of the North Northamptonshire Joint Core Strategy (2016), Householder Extensions Supplementary Planning Document (2020), Policy B2 of the Barnwell Neighbourhood Plan
