Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
- The living conditions of future occupiers of the proposal with regards to internal arrangements, outlook, noise and pollution
- The living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties with regards to outlook, noise and privacy
What decided it
The harmful effect on the character and appearance of the surrounding area caused by the single storey design and utilitarian styling, which conflicts with the established two and three storey built form of the area, outweighed the benefits of the proposal.
The benefits of housing contribution, biodiversity enhancement, cycle parking, waste management, energy efficiency and accessible design did not outweigh the harm to character and appearance of the surrounding area.
