Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the area
- Whether the proposal would provide for a suitable standard of residential accommodation for future residents
- Whether the proposal would include satisfactory provision for refuse/recycling storage
- The effect upon the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties with particular regard to outlook
What decided it
The proposal would not provide an acceptable standard of living accommodation and would be visually intrusive and incongruous with the character and appearance of the area, contrary to the development plan.
