Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effects of the proposals on the character and appearance of the area
- the effects of the proposals on the living conditions of existing occupiers
- Appeal A: the effect of the proposals on urban greening
- Appeal A: whether or not the proposal provides adequate means of escape in case of fire
- Appeal B: the effect of the proposals on flood risk prevention
What decided it
The excessive depth and height of the rear extensions in both schemes would have an unacceptable overbearing impact on the living conditions of occupiers at the neighbouring property No.72 Aylestone Road, and Appeal A would additionally be overly dominant in the streetscene.
