| 1. | Policy HOU18 of the Borough-Wide Local Plan (adopted by the Borough Council on 23rd February 2001) states that extensions and alterations to dwellings will be permitted where the proposal: (i) is in keeping with the design of the existing dwelling and the character of the area; (ii) would not significantly affect the amenities of any neighbouring dwelling; and, (iii) would not result in over-development of the site. In this instance the proposed first floor extension over the existing study at the application property would project at first floor level beyond the rear main wall of the house and being right on the boundary with and to the south of No 18 Marguerite Close, would overshadow the rear of No 18 Marguerite Close particularly the rear patio area. As a result of this the proposed development would be significantly detrimental to the residential amenities of the adjoining occupiers contrary to criterion (ii) above. |
