Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host property
- The living conditions of the occupiers of Nos 40 and 44 Cricketers Drive, particularly in regard of privacy
What decided it
The proposed roof dormer extension would be visually harmful to the character and appearance of the host property and the Juliet balcony would harm the privacy and living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, contrary to the development plan and Framework.
