Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and its surroundings
- the effect on the living conditions for the occupiers of No. 31 Coniston Gardens as regards outlook and light
What decided it
The modest scale and subtle design of the extensions, combined with the site-specific circumstances of the lower floor level and existing vegetation screening, meant that the departures from guidance would not cause unacceptable harm to character, appearance or neighbouring living conditions.

- Policy DMP1Policy BD1SPD 2
