Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and area
- the living conditions of the occupants of No 1 and No 3 Silverhill Cottages, with particular regard to outlook and light
What decided it
The modest scale, appropriate design, and limited projection of the extension meant it would not harm the character and appearance of the host dwelling, area, or AONB, nor would it significantly impact the living conditions of neighbouring occupants.
