Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Appeal A: whether the proposed demolition works would involve development and so require planning permission
- Appeal B: the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
Appeal A: the reduction in height of part of the boundary wall constitutes alteration rather than demolition and therefore requires planning permission which has not been granted. Appeal B: the formation of a parking space would cause considerable harm to the character and appearance of the area, conflicting with the development plan.
Appeal B: the benefits of providing one additional off-road parking space and one electric car charging point do not outweigh the harm to character and appearance of the area.
