Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- the living conditions of neighbouring occupants, with respect to overlooking and loss of privacy
What decided it
The proposal would cause significant harm to the character and appearance of the area through uncharacteristic backland development that would erode the sense of openness and verdant character of the rear gardens, resulting in conflict with the development plan that outweighed the limited benefits of an additional dwelling.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy SP3Policy DE1
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
