Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the principle of development with regard to the site's ability to accommodate the quantum of development proposed would be acceptable
- whether the proposal would provide for suitable access and parking arrangements, and the effect on the local highway network
- whether the proposed development would allow for a satisfactory standard of accommodation for its future occupiers
What decided it
The inadequate external amenity space for plot 3 and the inability to remedy this shortcoming without significantly impacting parking provision rendered the site unable to accommodate the key components necessary for a well-designed scheme.
