Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, with regard to the effect on protected trees
What decided it
The absence of appropriate construction method details to demonstrate that the development would not cause harm to protected trees T1 and T2, despite the appellant's justification for the location, meant the harm to character and appearance could not be outweighed.
The limited benefits of improved privacy, safety and use of land did not outweigh the harm to protected trees and the character and appearance of the surrounding area.
