Planning Decision
Why it was refused
- The rear dormer proposed would demonstrably impact the amenity of the neighbouring property, 43a. The overlooking that would arise from this proposal would have a significant impact on the neighbour's privacy and use of their garden contrary to the Residential Design Guide (Section 1: Protecting living conditions of neighbours) and policies DM32 and DM38 of the Sites and Policies Plan (Part 1).
From the council's decision notice.
