Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupants of Linden, with specific regard to outlook
  • whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for the future occupants of Plot 5 and Plot 10, with specific regard to light and garden space

What decided it

The site's allocation for housing in Policy VL5 of the Housing and Employment Allocations plan, combined with the low-density, sympathetic design that would accord with the established character of the area and provide acceptable living conditions for future and neighbouring occupants, justified allowing the appeal.

The benefits of delivering housing on an allocated site in accordance with the development plan, with a sensitive low-density design that preserves the character of the area and provides acceptable living conditions, outweighed any concerns about the change in the nature of the prominent junction.
