Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development upon the living conditions of the neighbouring properties, with regard to outlook
What decided it
The proposed extension would have a detrimental effect upon the outlook of occupiers of neighbouring properties due to its significant projection, height, and enclosing effect, which would be particularly harmful given that rear gardens are the only locations for private outdoor recreation.
