Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the living conditions of residential occupiers of Nos.19b and 19c Suttons Lane, with particular regard to privacy, noise and disturbance

What decided it

The commercial storage element would require frequent access via a narrow footway directly in front of the windows of the adjacent residential dwellings, causing unacceptable harm to privacy, noise and disturbance that cannot be adequately mitigated by conditions.
