Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- its effect on the character and appearance of the area
- its effect on the living conditions of neighbouring residents
What decided it
The bungalow's end-of-row position and angle to the road, combined with the existing garage's prominence, mean the proposed gable would not appear unduly prominent in the street scene and would not cause unacceptable harm to character and appearance or living conditions.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- CS1CS5DM9DM10
