Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the area
  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of 63 Johnson Street with particular regard to outlook, overshadowing, daylight
  • whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for the occupiers of the host dwelling, with particular regard to internal space standards, outlook and privacy

What decided it

The modest scale, subordinate design, and limited visibility of the extension, combined with its acceptable impact on neighbouring amenity and provision of suitable ancillary accommodation, demonstrated compliance with the development plan.
