Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal upon the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers at No 44 St Austell Road, with particular regard to outlook
What decided it
The proposed boundary wall would unacceptably harm the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers at No 44 by significantly diminishing outlook from their rear amenity space and potentially from habitable rooms, conflicting with Saved Policy PS10 and NPPF paragraph 135.
