Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the extension on the living conditions of the adjoining occupiers at 50 Maldon Road in respect of loss of outlook and sense of enclosure
What decided it
Appeal A's sloping roof design with white uPVC cladding would create a dominant and incongruous visual intrusion harmful to neighbouring outlook, whereas Appeal B's uniform height with brick parapet would present an acceptable appearance subject to a condition controlling the wall details.
