Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the existing building
- Whether the proposed development would provide adequate living conditions for future occupiers of flat 1 with particular regard to outlook
What decided it
The proposed rear extension would constitute unacceptable overdevelopment of the plot, appearing as a bulky and unsympathetic structure that would be at odds with the established pattern of development along the terrace and would harm the character and appearance of the existing building.
