Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of No.1 Fitzgerald Mews with particular regard to daylight, sunlight and outlook
- whether the proposed development would provide adequate living conditions for future occupiers, with particular regard to the internal floor to ceiling heights
What decided it
The proposed development would cause unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the area by unbalancing and disrupting the uniformity of the existing two-storey terrace, which was not outweighed by the limited housing and economic benefits.
