Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect on the living conditions of the occupiers of the adjacent dwelling at 4 Farley Park, with regard to whether the development would appear overbearing
What decided it
The distance of 14m between the upper floor addition and the neighbouring dwelling, combined with the lower ground level and flat roof design, would prevent any overbearing impact on the living conditions of adjacent occupiers.
