Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development carried out on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The hard surfacing has not changed the way the area has looked over a long time, as the grass strips had been largely covered by parked cars for 15 years and the surrounding area has undergone more significant changes that define its commercial character.
