Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area having regard to whether or not the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Woolsthorpe by Belvoir Conservation Area
  • the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of nearby and adjoining residential properties with particular regard to noise and disturbance

What decided it

The proposed use would be comparable in terms of activity, occupancy levels, and vehicular movements to an existing four-bedroom family dwelling, and would not cause material harm to the character and appearance of the conservation area or the living conditions of neighbouring residents.

Plan policies cited: Policy DE1 of the South Kesteven Local Plan 2011-2036 adopted 2020
