Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- whether the scheme would provide acceptable living conditions for its occupants, with particular reference to outlook and natural light
What decided it
The harm to character and appearance and the poor quality of future living conditions were sufficient to significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits of delivering 3 new homes in a context of acute housing shortfall.
