Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host building and wider terrace
  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of 106 Durham Hill, with particular reference to outlook from the rear garden

What decided it

The reduction in extension depth to 5 metres combined with removal of the shed, together with the topography and existing context of similar extensions in the area, meant the development would not harmfully affect character and appearance or significantly harm the outlook of the neighbouring property.
