Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effects of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the surrounding area
- The living conditions of occupiers of 103 Wensleydale Road and 79 Broad Lane, with particular regard to outlook, daylight / sunlight and privacy
- Highway and pedestrian safety
What decided it
The material harm to the character and appearance of the surrounding area and to the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, particularly the loss of outlook and daylight at No. 79 Broad Lane and the erosion of spaciousness between properties, could not be outweighed by the highway and pedestrian safety benefits of the revised access arrangements.
