An appeal launched against a decision to deny planning permission for a car port in Harpenden has been allowed.
Mr and Mrs Ellis submitted the appeal against St Albans District Council’s refusal to grant permission
for an alternative enclosed car port located in the same position as a previously approved garage and car port in Roundwood Park.
The main issue was the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area.
Objections were also received by the council regarding the effect of the car port on the living conditions of the occupiers of the neighbouring houses.
The car port has already been erected.
