Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed ground floor rear extension on the living conditions of No 34, with particular regard to daylight, sunlight and outlook.
What decided it
The proposed ground floor rear extension would cause excessive overshadowing and overbearing visual impact on the neighbouring property's living conditions, particularly affecting sunlight to ground floor French doors and outlook from side windows, which harm outweighs any benefits to the appellant's family.
