Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal upon the character and appearance of the area
- the living conditions of existing occupiers, with particular regard to outlook and levels of daylight and sunlight
What decided it
The proposed outbuilding's disproportionate scale and siting would appear dominant rather than subservient to the main dwelling and would unacceptably harm the outlook and daylight to the principal living room, conflicting with development plan policies and the Framework.
Framework references: 12, 135
