Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupants of No 29, with particular regard to light and outlook
- whether the proposal is acceptable with respect to biodiversity, with particular regard to bats
- whether the proposal is acceptable with respect to archaeology
What decided it
The particular topography of the site with steeply falling rear ground levels meant the proposed extension would not result in harmful loss of light, outlook or an overbearing appearance to the neighbouring property, combined with the bat scoping study demonstrating negligible bat roosting potential and the fallback position of permitted development rights justifying the archaeology position.
