Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
  • The living conditions of the occupiers of No. 10 Levington Wynd in respect of outlook and privacy

What decided it

The development causes significant harm to the character and appearance of the area through its dominating and imposing scale and position, which is incongruous with the established design pattern of the street and does not accord with the development plan.
