Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, with particular regard to privacy and sunlight
  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The harm to neighbouring living conditions through overlooking and sunlight reduction, combined with harm to the character and appearance of the area through the development's excessive scale and bulk relative to adjacent properties, outweighed the modest housing and economic benefits of the scheme.
