Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of future and neighbouring occupiers, having regard to crime and anti-social behaviour

What decided it

The significant harm to the character and appearance of the area caused by the visually intrusive and incongruous hard boundary treatment in a locality characterised by open and soft-landscaped frontages outweighed any personal benefits to the appellants.

The harm to character and appearance was not outweighed by the appellants' personal circumstances or the absence of harm to living conditions and highway safety.
