Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- effect on the living conditions of the occupiers of 115 Venner Road with particular regard to outlook and sunlight
What decided it
The extension, being substantially lower than the pre-existing rear outrigger and producing only modest sunlight reductions that comply with BRE guidelines, would not cause material harm to the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers.
