Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • the existing trees having particular regard to the site's location to a Protected Beech Tree immediately to the south-east of the site
  • the living conditions of the occupiers of the neighbouring property at Squirrels to the north of the site with particular regard to light and outlook

What decided it

The unacceptable impact on the living conditions of the occupiers of the neighbouring property Squirrels, particularly regarding loss of light and outlook to their garden area caused by the dominant and enclosing nature of the proposed garage in close proximity to the shared boundary.
