Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effects of the development on the character and appearance of the area by reason of its massing, particularly on the return Bennerley Road elevation
  • the living conditions of occupiers of neighbouring dwellings, particularly in relation to overlooking from external amenity areas and noise and fumes from an extract vent

What decided it

The proposal would be detrimental to the living conditions of occupiers at 79B Bennerley Road through visual intrusion and disturbance from the extract duct and overlooking from the kitchen window, contrary to Policy DMS1(c) of the Development Management Planning Document.

Plan policies cited: Policy PL1, Policy DMS1, Policy DMH4, Policy LP2B
