Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the surrounding area
  • the living conditions of the occupiers of 64 Beechcroft Gardens, with particular regard to outlook and light

What decided it

The proposal would create an unduly oppressive and enclosing effect on the outlook from the neighbouring property's primary source of light and outlook, combined with the extension appearing unduly bulky and prominent due to its height and depth exceeding design guidance.
