Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The likely effect of the proposed house extensions at No. 23 Woodbridge Avenue on the amenity of neighbouring dwellings to the south-west in Blackberry Grove

What decided it

The proposed garage extension would be built almost on the rear boundary of neighbouring properties and would cause unacceptable overshadowing, loss of outlook, and an overbearing effect that would significantly harm the amenity of neighbouring dwellings.
