Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the living conditions at 106 Knighton Church Road, and whether it would ensure appropriate living conditions for the occupants of the host property

What decided it

The extension's limited height, sloping roof form, retention of a 1 metre gap to the boundary, and careful window placement would prevent harmful impacts on neighbouring living conditions whilst maintaining acceptable conditions for the host property occupants.
