- Inspector

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- Whether the development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers, with particular regard to daylight and sunlight, internal living space, and private amenity space
What decided it
The proposed fourth storey would cause significant harm to the character and appearance of the area through its height, bulk, massing and detailing, and Flat 5 would lack any on-site amenity space, together outweighing the moderate benefit of additional housing provision.
