Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host property and the surrounding area
  • The living conditions of the occupiers of 76 Wyman's Road with particular regard to outlook and privacy

What decided it

The proposal would cause unacceptable harm to both the character and appearance of the host property and surrounding area through inadequate setback and oversized dormer, and would result in unacceptable loss of privacy for neighbouring occupiers through direct overlooking of their rear garden.
