ObjectionThe proposed extension raises a level of concern regarding the potential loss of sunlight and increased overshadowing of our garden.; the large brick gable end of the proposed extension will be a very dominant feature from the whole of our garden, giving a potential overbearing feeling; certain elements are detrimental to the the street scape elevation; All this has confused us as to whether it is a garage or external storage space; During the last alterations there was a considerable amount of noise, dust and disturbance made.
