Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect on the character and appearance of the area
Whether the proposal would provide for a satisfactory living environment for existing and future residents of No 202 Wymersley Road and the proposed dwelling, with particular regard to private amenity space

What decided it

The proposed dwelling would introduce unacceptably prominent, dominant and intrusive built form immediately adjacent to the footway edge at the Daville Close junction, resulting in significant harm to the character and appearance of the area and conflict with the development plan.

The significant harm to character and appearance of the area outweighed the modest benefits of housing delivery and construction-related economic benefits, such that the proposal would not accord with the development plan and material considerations did not indicate determination other than in accordance with the plan.
