Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring residential occupiers in terms of its potential to appear overbearing and result in a level of overlooking to cause a loss of privacy
What decided it
The proposed development would cause significant harm to the living conditions of the occupiers of Little Garth through overbearing appearance and overlooking leading to loss of privacy, contrary to Policy CS21 and the SPD guidance on separation distances.
Plan policies cited: Policy CS21 of the Woking Local Development Document-Woking Core Strategy (Adopted October 2012), Woking Borough Council Local Development Documents-Amenity, Privacy and Daylight-Supplementary Planning Document SPD (Adopted February 2022), Woking Design SPD (Adopted February 2015)
