Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the site and the surrounding area
  • The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupants of 59 and 61 Gadsby Street, with regard to privacy, outlook and light
  • Whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupants of the development, with regard to the provision of internal living space

What decided it

The existing garage's negative visual impact on the streetscene and the area's lack of uniform character meant the proposed conversion would not cause detrimental harm to character and appearance, while conditions could adequately protect neighbouring amenity and ensure acceptable living conditions for the future occupant.
