Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Monken Hadley Conservation Area
- The effect of the proposal on the vitality and viability of the town centre
- The effect of the proposed scheme on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers of 208-212 High Street with particular regard to sunlight, daylight and outlook
- The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of future occupiers with respect to outlook and privacy
- Whether the proposal would function well with respect to the provision of parking and the availability of on-street parking
What decided it
The harm to the conservation area and the demonstrable adverse effects on the living conditions of both neighbouring and future occupiers, taken together, resulted in conflict with the development plan that could not be justified by the limited housing contribution or other benefits.
