Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether or not the Council has an adequate supply of land for housing
  • the character and appearance of the appeal site and surrounding area
  • the effect on trees, including trees subject of a Tree Preservation Order (TPO)

What decided it

The significant harm to the character and appearance of the site and surrounding area was not outweighed by the benefits of the scheme.

the social and economic benefits of providing family housing did not outweigh the significant harm to character and appearance, so the proposal conflicted with the development plan as a whole
