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 dwelling, at 1 Albion Close, with particular regard to privacy
What decided it
The imposition of a condition requiring a 1.85m high obscured glass privacy screen at the side of the terrace facing the adjacent dwelling resolved the privacy concern, allowing the appeal to succeed on the basis that the development would cause no harmful impact to character, appearance or living conditions.
