Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The significant harm to character and appearance from removal of the boundary wall and creation of a hardstanding parking area outweighs the appellant's personal circumstances, as alternative parking solutions are available that would meet the family's needs without requiring planning permission.

The significant harm to character and appearance of the area was not outweighed by the appellant's personal circumstances relating to disability, given the availability of alternative parking solutions that would deliver similar benefits.
