Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effects of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the surrounding area
  • The living conditions of occupiers of neighbouring properties, with particular regard to daylight / sunlight and outlook
  • The living conditions of future occupiers of the proposed development, with particular regard to internal living space
  • Parking provision

What decided it

The cumulative harm to character and appearance, neighbouring amenity, internal space standards, and parking provision outweighed the modest benefits of five additional homes.

The modest benefits of housing supply and economic/social benefits were outweighed by significant harm to character and appearance, overbearing impact on neighbouring properties' daylight and sunlight, substandard internal accommodation, and parking pressure on highway safety
