Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposal would amount to permitted development
  • if so, the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers at 1032 Melton Road, with particular regard to outlook, daylight and sunlight

What decided it

The proposed extension, when considered together with the retained conservatory, would exceed half the width of the original dwellinghouse and extend beyond the side elevation, breaching paragraph A.1.(j)(iii) of the GPDO and therefore not constituting permitted development.
