Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of 1 Cedars Cottage, with particular regard to light and outlook
  • the effect of the proposal upon the character or appearance of Chorleywood Common Conservation Area

What decided it

The proposal would harm the living conditions of occupiers of the neighbouring property with regard to light and outlook, conflicting with development plan policies protecting residential amenities, and no material considerations outweighed this conflict.

Plan policies cited: CS Policy CP12, DMP Policy DM1, DMP Appendix 2, CS Policy CP1, DMP Policy DM3, Chorleywood Neighbourhood Plan Policy 1, Chorleywood Neighbourhood Plan Policy 2
