After the denial of Ms request by tbe North Huntingdon Township Board of Adjustment, appellee was granted a rehearing before the Board by the Court of .Common Pleas of Westmoreland County. The Board again denied the variance, and on appeal the Court of Common Pleas, after a full evidentiary hearing, ordered the Township to grant the variance. Hence this appeal.
