Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the appeal development on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The combination of the wall's modest width piers, open nature of its gates, and restrained height means the open character of Helena Close is maintained and the development does not have a visually enclosing or dominant effect.
