Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupants of 66, 68 and 70 Rowlands Avenue, and on the occupants of 4 and 5 Pinewood Close, with regards to outlook and privacy
- The effect of the proposal in the character and appearance of the area
- Whether the proposed dwellings would provide satisfactory living conditions for future occupants, having regard to light and outlook
What decided it
The significant harmful effects on the living conditions of neighbouring occupants regarding outlook and privacy, combined with substantial harm to the character and appearance of the area, outweighed the limited social, economic and environmental benefits of the development.
