Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the property, the streetscene and the area more widely
- the effect of the proposed dormer and single storey extension on the outlook, sense of enclosure and living conditions of neighbouring occupiers at Nos 58 and 62 Poynings Avenue
What decided it
The rear extension, by reason of its excessive depth and position abutting the shared boundary with No.58, would cause material loss of outlook and unacceptable sense of enclosure to neighbouring occupiers, and this harm could not be overcome by reliance on permitted development rights which require proper local authority-led consultation.
