- Nilsson A
Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the single storey rear extension on the living conditions of the occupants of the adjacent residential property with specific regard to outlook and light
- Whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the Nunhead Green Conservation Area with specific regard to the design of the proposed development and its potential impact on trees
What decided it
The proposed development would cause less than substantial harm to the significance of the conservation area through its poor design and disjointed appearance when viewed from public vantage points, and this harm is not outweighed by any public benefits.
