Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed new garden design on the character and appearance of the host property and the surrounding area
- The effect on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers and in particular occupiers at 9 Prospect Road with respect to outlook, enclosure and privacy
What decided it
The proposed garden design, whilst introducing significant hard landscaping, would provide a visually appropriate and functionally satisfactory solution to the site's topographical constraints without materially harming the character and appearance of the area or the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers.
