Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host property and the surrounding area
- the effect on the living conditions of the occupiers of 63 and 67 Dufton Approach in respect of their outlook
What decided it
The proposal would create an unduly overbearing and oppressive feature affecting the outlook from 63 Dufton Approach and would harmfully alter the uniform character and appearance of the area through its incongruous scale, mass and material finish.
