Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host building and the local area
- the living conditions of the occupiers of Nos 7 and 11 with particular regard to visual impact and light
- whether the proposal would provide satisfactory living conditions for the occupiers of No 9 with reference to outdoor amenity space
What decided it
The proposal would cause significant harm to local character and appearance by disrupting the distinctive rear build line of the terrace, materially reduce living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through overshadowing and visual impact, and fail to provide adequate outdoor amenity space for the host dwelling.
