Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, with particular regard to design and scale

What decided it

The proposal's high-quality design, appropriate scale relative to the surrounding context of large detached buildings within large plots, and compliance with local plan policies for the ASRC outweighed any concerns about the change from a single dwelling to a flatted development.

Plan policies cited: Policy 4, Policy 37, Policy 44
