Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the existing dwelling and surrounds, including the Lots Village Conservation Area
the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties with regard to artificial light pollution

What decided it

The conservatory's small scale, visual connection with the building, and replacement of a pre-existing covered store room structure, combined with the existing context of numerous windows and glazed features in the tight-knit neighbourhood, meant the development would not adversely affect character, appearance or neighbouring living conditions.

Plan policies cited: Policy CD1, Policy CD2, Policy CD3, Policy CD4, Policy CD10, Policy CD13, Policy CD15, Policy GB10, Policy CD9
