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's forward positioning and failure to respect the established building line and road curvature would result in an incongruous and discordant form of development that would harm the character and appearance of the area, and this harm outweighs the modest benefits of housing supply and economic gain.

The modest benefits of housing supply and economic benefits from construction and occupation were outweighed by the harmful effect on character and appearance
