Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effects of the proposed development upon the living conditions of the occupiers of the ground floor flat to the south, with specific reference to their outlook
  • The effects of the proposed development upon the garden adjacent to the appeal site to the north, with specific reference to the outlook and light afforded to the occupiers of that garden

What decided it

The 45 degree code was found to be inapplicable to single storey rear extensions under the Council's own guidance, and the modest design combined with existing site features would ensure acceptable effects on neighbouring living conditions and the conservation area.
