Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed rear extension on the living conditions of the occupants of 288 Durants Road with particular reference to outlook, daylight and sunlight
  • the effect of the proposed outdoor seating area on the character and appearance of the surrounding area

What decided it

The unacceptable harm to the living conditions of occupants at No 288, particularly in terms of outlook from the overbearing impact of the rear extension, outweighed the benefits of extending the commercial business.
