Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the outbuilding on the character and appearance of the area
- The effect of the outbuilding on the living condition of neighbouring occupants, having regard to privacy, outlook and noise and disturbance
What decided it
The outbuilding materially deviates from the approved plans in height, fenestration, and provision of first-floor accommodation, causing the original planning permission to lapse, and the as-built structure causes unacceptable harm to character and appearance and neighbouring amenity that cannot be adequately mitigated.
