Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal upon the living conditions of the occupiers of Flats 1 and 2 Scotts Lane and Nos 76 and 80 Scotts Lane with regard to privacy, noise and disturbance
- The effect of the proposal upon the character and appearance of the appeal building and the street scene
What decided it
The significant loss of privacy to neighbouring occupiers caused by the proposed balcony's proximity and design, combined with harm to the character and appearance of the appeal building, resulted in conflict with the development plan that material considerations could not overcome.
