Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the surrounding area
- the living conditions of the occupiers of the neighbouring properties, in terms of outlook, daylight and sunlight
- the living conditions of the occupiers of the appeal property, in terms of garden space
What decided it
The development's harmful effect on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and surrounding area, combined with its overbearing impact on neighbouring properties' outlook, daylight and sunlight, conflicts with the development plan with no material considerations sufficient to outweigh this conflict.
Plan policies cited: Policy ENV3 of the Black Country Core Strategy (2011), Policy SAD EOS 9 of the Site Allocations and Delivery Development Plan Document (2012)
