Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposal would provide satisfactory living conditions for the future occupiers, with regard to internal space, amenity space, outlook, sunlight and daylight
  • the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties, with particular regard to outlook, privacy and daylight to 75 Victoria Crescent; and noise and disturbance to numbers 75 to 78a Victoria Crescent

What decided it

The proposal would fail to provide satisfactory living conditions for future occupiers due to inadequate internal space, lack of amenity space, and poor outlook/daylight, and would cause unacceptable noise and disturbance to neighbouring residents through parking area vehicle movements.

Plan policies cited: Strategic Policy 1, Detailed Policy 3, Detailed Policy 7
