Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and locality
- The effect on the living conditions of the occupiers of the adjacent dwellings at 9 and 13 Bentsbrook Road with particular regard to daylight, overshadowing, outlook, overlooking and whether the development would appear overpowering
What decided it
The modest scale, bulk and massing of the extensions, combined with their cohesive architectural design incorporating matching materials and roof forms, would result in no harm to character and appearance or to the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers.
