Officers’ assessment

Officers considered the design, residential amenity, flooding and ecology acceptable, and recommended granting permission with conditions and notes.

“Residential Amenity The development would infringe on 45-degree sightlines from the centre of neighbouring habitable room windows to the rear of numbers 93 and 99 Shipston Road. The proposed extension is situated 0.8 metres from the boundary wall to 93 and up to the boundary wall of 99. I am satisfied that the proposed extension would not cause any overshadowing to rear windows or the garden belonging to 99 Shipston Road.”
