Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The provision of adequate natural light in all habitable rooms of the dwellinghouses
- Impacts of noise from commercial premises on the intended occupiers of the development
What decided it
The appellant's technical reports adequately demonstrated that the proposed conversion would provide adequate natural light to all habitable rooms and would not result in material harm to living conditions from noise, satisfying the requirements of Class MA of the General Permitted Development Order.
