Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- Whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers, with particular regard to the amount, quality and layout of living space and outdoor amenity space, privacy, and outlook
What decided it
The harm to character and appearance combined with unacceptable living conditions for future occupiers significantly and demonstrably outweighed the modest housing and economic benefits when assessed against the Framework taken as a whole.
The modest social and economic benefits of eight new dwellings were significantly and demonstrably outweighed by the harm to character and appearance and failure to provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers
