Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Appeal A: whether the Council's decision to refuse a certificate of lawful use or development was well founded
- Appeal B: whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Sheen Common Drive Conservation Area
- Appeal B: the effect of the living conditions of the occupiers of 8 and 12 Sheen Common Drive, with regard to privacy
What decided it
Appeal A: the outbuilding roof height of 4 metres exceeds the 3 metre permitted development limit. Appeal B: the large rear gable end roof alteration would harm the Conservation Area's character and the balcony would unacceptably compromise neighbouring privacy.
