Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Provision of adequate natural light in all habitable rooms of the dwellinghouses
  • Transport and highways impacts of the development

What decided it

The appellant's detailed evidence confirming that surrounding buildings had been modelled in the daylight assessment, combined with the Inspector's site inspection confirming the conclusions were realistic, resolved the natural light issue; and the appellant's confirmation of freeholder status over the courtyard area enabled cycle parking to be secured by condition, resolving the highways concern.
