Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether or not the application is a valid householder application
- The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of 67 and 71 Deacons Hill Road, with specific regard to privacy, daylight and sunlight
What decided it
The retention of sufficient internal and external walls meant the dwelling would remain readily distinguishable as a dwelling, validating the householder application, and the modest depth and offset of the extensions would not materially harm the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers.
