Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the living conditions of adjacent occupiers with particular regard to the availability of natural light to, and the outlook from, 76 Gowan Avenue

What decided it

The ground floor extension, despite exceeding supplementary planning guidance, does not result in a harmful impact on neighbouring occupiers' living conditions given its single storey height, the constrained nature of the urban context, and the retention of meaningful outlook from the affected neighbouring window.
