Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the appeal extension on the living conditions of the occupants of neighbouring properties in Burkitt Street and Mona Street
  • Its effect on the character and appearance of this residential part of Hyde

What decided it

The unauthorised extension breached the 18m separation distance policy requirement and caused demonstrable harm to the living conditions of neighbouring occupants through loss of privacy, light and outlook, and was visually incongruous and overdevelopment of the tight terraced site.
