Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host property and surrounding area
  • the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers at 9 Lay Garth Close with regard to outlook and a sense of enclosure

What decided it

The proposal would result in significant detrimental effects on both the character and appearance of the host property and surrounding area and the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, with the cumulative harm clearly outweighing any public benefit.
