Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers with particular regard to outlook, privacy and any overbearing effect at 28 Warnham Road

What decided it

The proposed development would harmfully erode the regular street-fronting pattern of development and unacceptably undermine the spacious character of the area, contrary to Policies 32 and 33 of the HDPF, and this character harm outweighs the minor social and economic benefits of one dwelling.

The environmental harm to character and appearance outweighs the minor social and economic benefits associated with the provision of one dwelling; adverse impacts significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits when assessed against the policies of the Framework as a whole

Plan policies cited: Policy 3 of the Horsham District Planning Framework November 2015, Policy 25 of the Horsham District Planning Framework November 2015, Policy 32 of the Horsham District Planning Framework November 2015, Policy 33 of the Horsham District Planning Framework November 2015
