Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
- the living conditions of Nos 39, 41, 43A, 43B, 43C and 45 Churchfield Road with particular regard to privacy and the provision of garden space
- the living conditions of the future occupiers of the proposed dwellings with particular regard to privacy and the provision of garden space
- highway safety
- the location and availability of bin storage
What decided it
The significant harm to the character and appearance of the area and the loss of privacy and inadequate garden provision for neighbouring properties could not be overcome by the acceptable aspects of the scheme.
The proposal would conflict with the development plan regarding character and appearance and neighbouring living conditions, and there were no material considerations to outweigh that conflict.
