Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed extensions to the front of the property on the character and appearance of the host property and the area
  • the effect of the proposed extensions to the front of the property on the living conditions at 11 Green Lane, with particular regard to overlooking

What decided it

The cumulative effect of the proposed extensions would significantly harm the character and appearance of the host property and the streetscene, and would cause harmful overlooking to neighbouring occupiers, thereby conflicting with the development plan.
