Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of Fox Run
- the living conditions of the occupants of 9 Fox Run with respect to light and privacy
What decided it
The proposal would result in unacceptable harm to both the character and appearance of the locality and the living conditions of neighbouring occupants with respect to light and privacy, conflicting with the development plan and the Framework.
The private benefit of additional floor space for homeworking was insufficient to outweigh the harms to character and appearance and neighbouring living conditions.

- Development plan policies
- Policy SD4Policy SD14
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 130
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
