Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area, also having regard to trees

What decided it

The revised site plan demonstrating that the crossover could be relocated to protect the tree's root protection area, combined with the proposal's acceptable design that would not be discordant with the multifaceted character of the locality, resolved the main issue in the appellant's favour.
