Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of Nos 33 and 37 Ablett Street with regard to outlook
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of 35 Ablett Street and the surrounding area
What decided it
The proposed extension's excessive scale, depth and proximity to shared boundaries would cause unacceptable harm to the living conditions and outlook of neighbouring occupiers and would appear as a disproportionate addition to the host dwelling, conflicting with the development plan.
