Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the Tylehurst Drive street scene
  • The effect on parking

What decided it

The unacceptably harmful effect on the character and appearance of the Tylehurst Drive street scene caused by the narrow 0.8m gap between the extension and the adjacent dwelling, which would erode the carefully maintained separation and spaciousness of the tightly knit estate layout.
