Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed dwelling on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, especially No's 9 and 11 Ridge Avenue, with respect to outlook, daylight and sunlight
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The substantial harm to the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through reduced daylight, sunlight and outlook, combined with the proposal's discordant effect on local character, could not be justified by the limited housing and employment benefits offered.
The benefits of housing supply and limited employment during construction were outweighed by substantial harm to neighbouring living conditions and the character and appearance of the area
