Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effects of the proposed rear dormer and of the proposed second storey rear extension upon the character and appearance of the host property and whether they would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Newbiggin-by-the-Sea Conservation Area
- The effects of the proposed second storey rear extension upon the living conditions of the occupiers of 12 Front Street with particular regard to outlook and sunlight and upon the occupiers of 8 Front Street with particular regard to outlook
What decided it
The proposed rear dormer would cause less than substantial harm to the conservation area that was not outweighed by public benefits, and the second storey extension would cause unacceptable harm to the outlook of neighbouring occupiers at No 12 Front Street.
