Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host property and local area
- The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the neighbouring occupants of 70 and 74 Evesham Road, with particular regard to outlook and light
What decided it
The proposal would harmfully reduce the outlook from the garden and ground floor rear window of No 70, creating a significant sense of enclosure that cannot be mitigated by conditions and outweighs any other benefits.
