Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the amenity of the occupiers of 42 and 46 Broadway West with particular regard to light and outlook

What decided it

The flat roof design limiting the height of the visible extension above the boundary fence, combined with the removal of the outbuilding, meant that the proposal would not cause sufficient harm to the light and outlook of neighbouring occupiers to justify refusal of prior approval.
