Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host dwelling
  • the living conditions of occupiers of No 23 Cloisters Way, with particular regard to privacy, outlook, noise and light

What decided it

The proposal would introduce an incongruous and visually dominant feature that harms the character and appearance of the host dwelling and would unacceptably compromise the living conditions of the neighbouring occupiers through overlooking, overbearing impact, noise, and loss of light.
