Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the development would provide adequate living conditions for future occupiers of Bedroom 2 with particular regard to light and outlook
- the effect of the extension on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The development would not provide adequate living conditions for future occupiers of Bedroom 2 due to poor light, limited outlook and overshadowing, conflicting with development plan policies requiring appropriate outlook and sufficient daylight and sunlight.
