Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the living conditions of the residential occupants of 7 Park Avenue, with regard to outlook, sunlight and daylight

What decided it

The significant reduction in outlook, sunlight and daylight to the neighbouring habitable room window, which rendered the room gloomy and oppressively confined, contrary to Policy HC4 and the House Extensions SPD.

Plan policies cited: Policy HC4 of the Sefton Council Local Plan 2017, Sefton Council House Extensions Supplementary Planning Document 2018
