Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the amendments on the character and appearance of the area
  • the effect of the amendments on the living conditions of the occupants of neighbouring properties, with particular regard to privacy

What decided it

The adverse impacts on the character and appearance of the area, particularly the overbearing and incongruous design of the front and rear first floor balconies, were decisive and outweighed any benefits of the amended scheme.
