Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the Hazelwick Road Conservation Area
- the living conditions of Nos 58 and 62 Hazelwick Road with particular regard to whether it would have an overbearing effect on those properties, and overshadowing to No 58
What decided it
The excessive scale, bulk, form and mass of the dormer would result in less than substantial harm to the significance of the conservation area with no public benefits to outweigh it, and would also cause unacceptable overbearing harm to neighbouring living conditions.
The less than substantial harm to the conservation area and overbearing harm to neighbouring living conditions were not outweighed by any public benefits or other material considerations.
