Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of number 9 The Island in respect of potential overlooking and loss of privacy

What decided it

The first-floor window serves only a landing area with a narrow window board that would not allow people to stand or congregate, and therefore would not result in unacceptable overlooking or loss of privacy to the neighbouring property.

Plan policies cited: Policy DM2, Elmbridge Local Plan Development Management Plan (Adopted April 2015), Elmbridge Local Plan - Design and Character Supplementary Planning Document (Adopted April 2012)
