Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the appeal development on the character and appearance of the area, including the Padbury Conservation Area and the setting of the listed buildings at Nos 23, 24 and 25 Old End
  • the effect of the appeal development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, with particular regard to overlooking for the occupants of No 2 Arnolds Close
  • whether there are any other material considerations, including any fallback position, which indicate that planning permission should be granted

What decided it

The real prospect that a worse fallback position involving greater site coverage and more cramped development would be built under permitted development rights if planning permission was refused, which would cause greater harm to character and appearance than the appeal development.
