Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

whether the proposed development would provide satisfactory living conditions for future occupiers, with particular regard to noise and disturbance, daylight, sunlight, odour and light pollution
the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the neighbouring occupiers of 4 and 4a Anglesey Street and Anglesey Court, with regard to external amenity space and privacy
the effect of the proposal on highway safety, with particular regard to the proposed access and parking arrangements

What decided it

The unacceptable noise and disturbance from the adjacent club to future occupiers, combined with the loss of rear garden amenity space for the occupiers of No 4, significantly outweighed the limited benefits of providing one additional dwelling.
