Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether or not adequate living conditions would be created for future occupants of the proposal, with reference to privacy, outlook, external space, noise, and smells
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The inadequate living conditions for future occupants, particularly regarding privacy, outlook, noise and odours from the proximity of habitable room windows to the adjacent walkway, outweighed the benefits of adding one dwelling to housing supply.
