Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • Highway safety with regards to parking capacity
  • Whether adequate foul water drainage could be achieved

What decided it

The proposal would significantly harm the character and appearance of the area by intruding on the open corner and conflicting with the prevailing pattern of terraced development, which outweighed the limited benefits of providing one additional dwelling.

The benefits of housing supply and construction/local spending were outweighed by the significant harm to character and appearance.
