Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • Whether the proposal would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers, with regards to outlook and private amenity space
  • Its effect on the living conditions of the occupiers of Number 48 Myrtle Road, with regards to outlook and daylight

What decided it

The proposed extension would harm the character and appearance of the area and fail to provide acceptable living conditions for both future occupiers and neighbouring residents, contrary to the National Planning Policy Framework and local plan policies.

Plan policies cited: Core Strategy Policy CS03, Local Plan Policy PS10, Residential Amenity Supplementary Planning Document (2008)
