Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

the effects of the development on the living conditions of the neighbour at 3 Kingston Close in particular, with regard to noise, general disturbance, odour and smoke
whether the setting of the Seven Balls public house, which is a grade II listed building, has been preserved

What decided it

The development would cause unacceptable adverse effects on neighbouring living conditions and would harm the setting of the grade II listed building without justification, conflicting with development plan policies on amenity protection and heritage asset conservation.

Plan policies cited: Policy DM1, Policy CS1B, Policy D, Policy DM7B

Landscape and environment. Green belt, national parks and national landscapes, SSSIs, ancient woodland, SPA, SAC and Ramsar sites, nutrient catchments.
Flooding. Flood zones 2 and 3, surface water, and both again with climate change.
Transport. The 800 metre station catchment and service frequency, bus stops with their weekday frequency, the cycle network, and the Framework’s transport tests measured for the site.
