Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • Its effect on the living conditions of the occupiers of Number 64 Uplands Road, with regards to outlook

What decided it

The proposed extension would harm both the character and appearance of the area through its incongruous design and cramped appearance, and would unacceptably harm the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through overbearing outlook impact.
