Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the proposed west side extension (extension 2) on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers of the ground floor flat at 23 Clandon Road, located to the south of the appeal site, with particular regard to outlook

What decided it

The modest single-storey height, siting off the boundary, and relationship with surrounding built form of the extension mean it would not create an unacceptable sense of enclosure or harm to the outlook of the neighbouring flat.

Framework references: 57

Plan policies cited: Policy H4 - Housing Extensions and Alterations including Annexes, Policy D5: Protection of Amenity and Provision of Amenity Space
