Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, with particular reference to privacy
- whether the proposed development would provide satisfactory living conditions for future occupiers, with regard to the provision of private internal and external amenity space
What decided it
The existing dense character of development in this part of Wellesbourne, with mutual overlooking between nearby properties, supports the conclusion that the proposed rear-facing windows would not cause unacceptable privacy harm to neighbouring occupiers.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy CS.9 of the Stratford-on-Avon District Core Strategy (2011 to 2031)
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
