Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the development provides acceptable living conditions for the occupants of the self-contained flats, with particular regard to the level of floorspace, external amenity space and levels of outlook
  • The effect of the development on the living conditions of neighbouring residents, having particular regard to any overshadowing and/or overbearing impacts arising from the extensions and any loss of privacy arising from the use of the first floor balcony
  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The development provides wholly unsatisfactory living conditions for occupants with floorspace significantly below policy requirements and no private amenity space, and causes significant harm to neighbouring living conditions through overshadowing and overbearing impacts, contrary to the development plan with no material considerations to outweigh these harms.
