Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of nearby residents with particular reference to privacy, noise and disturbance
- Whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Tisbury Conservation Area
What decided it
The unacceptable overlooking, loss of privacy and noise disturbance to neighbouring residents, combined with the less than substantial harm to the Conservation Area that would result from necessary mitigation screening, outweighed the private benefit of additional amenity space.
The identified harm to the living conditions of nearby residents and conflict with development plan policy, to which significant weight was attached, outweighed the private benefit of additional outdoor amenity space to which only very limited weight was attached.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy CP57Policy CP58
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 199
