Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- Whether the proposed development would provide appropriate living conditions for future occupiers, with particular regard to outlook, privacy, outdoor amenity space, noise and disturbance, crime, and daylight and sunlight
- Highway safety, with particular regard to the adequacy of parking provision
What decided it
The proposed development would unacceptably harm the character and appearance of the area through its incongruous siting and cramped appearance, combined with inadequate living conditions and unacceptable highway safety impacts from loss of parking provision.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy SD4Policy SD10Policy SD14Policy INF1
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
