Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of No. 104 High Street with regards to outlook and light
- Whether the proposed development would provide satisfactory living conditions for the future occupiers, with particular regard to privacy, outlook and safety
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host building and area
What decided it
The material loss of light and outlook that would be experienced by occupiers of the neighbouring property No. 104 as a result of the proposed rear extension, which would exacerbate the dominating relationship of the buildings and cause significant harm to neighbouring living conditions contrary to the development plan and NPPF.
