Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of No. 59 Dinorben Close and No 55 Dinorben Close with particular regard to outlook and light

What decided it
