Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether varying the condition would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Little Aston Conservation Area
- the effect that varying the condition would have on the living conditions of occupants of neighbouring properties Al-Andalus and Hamilton, with particular regard to outlook
- the effect of varying the condition on protected trees
What decided it
The combination of the substantial tree and vegetation cover screening the altered design from public view, the prevention of overlooking through the opaque screen, and the protection afforded to the trees by their TPO status and the existing arboricultural method statement condition allowed the appeal.
