Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of No 38 Green Lane, in terms of its potential to have such an overbearing and visually obtrusive impact as to result in an unacceptable sense of enclosure, loss of outlook or loss of light
What decided it
The proposed extension would cause a significant loss of sunlight to the neighbouring property's principal windows and garden, resulting in unacceptable harm to residential living conditions that outweighs the appellants' domestic needs.
