Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effects of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the wider area
  • the living conditions of residents of the neighbouring flats at Nordean Court with regard to outlook and sunlight

What decided it

The design, scale and mass of the proposed rear dormers would harm the character and appearance of the host dwelling and wider area, and would significantly harm the living conditions of neighbouring residents with regard to outlook, conflicting with the development plan.
