Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- the effect of the proposed development on highway safety with particular regard to parking
What decided it
The proposed development would disrupt the symmetry and visual rhythm of the area by creating a terrace of three properties inconsistent with the prevailing pattern of semi-detached pairs and larger terraces, causing significant harm to character and appearance that could not be outweighed.
The significant harm to character and appearance was not outweighed by any material considerations, and the development conflicted with the development plan taken as a whole.
