Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of occupiers of the existing dwelling with regard to outlook
  • Whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future and existing residents with regard to private outside space
  • The effect of the parking provision on the streetscene

What decided it

The proposed development would harm the open and spacious character and appearance of Wincote Drive by appearing cramped and shoehorned between existing development, and would create an unneighbourly and oppressive outlook for occupiers of the existing dwelling.
