Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

- Whether the appeal site is a suitable location for industrial development with specific regard to development plan policies
- Whether the proposed development would lead to an unacceptable effect on flooding with specific regard to drainage
What decided it
The proposed development would cause unacceptable visual harm to the character and appearance of the surrounding area through its incongruous design, which conflicts with the established building line and traditional character of Sheldon Road.
