Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, and on the living conditions of the occupiers of No. 46 Wexham Road, with particular regard to outlook and sunlight
What decided it
The presence of comparable loft conversions and dormers already established in the vicinity, combined with the proportionate size and design of the proposed dormer, demonstrated that the development would not appear incongruous or harm the character and appearance of the area or the living conditions of neighbours.
