Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties and also the occupiers of the new units proposed
  • The effect of the proposal on on-street parking provision and highway safety

What decided it

The inadequate parking provision combined with overlooking and privacy harm to neighbours and poor living conditions for some future occupiers outweighed the benefits of increased housing supply.
