Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The proposal would cause no harm to the character and appearance of the area, accords with the development plan, and benefits from the presumption in favour of sustainable development due to the borough's housing delivery shortfall.
The benefits of housing delivery and the presumption in favour of sustainable development outweighed any concerns, with no identified conflict with the development plan or Framework policies protecting areas of particular importance
