Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host property and the wider area

What decided it

The unacceptably harmful effect on the character and appearance of the host property and wider area, which significantly and demonstrably outweighed the limited housing and economic benefits of a single dwelling.

The conflict with design and character policies was afforded significant weight; the benefits of one market dwelling and limited economic benefits were afforded limited weight; the adverse impacts significantly and demonstrably outweighed the benefits when assessed against the Framework taken as a whole.

Framework references: 11, 130, 219

Plan policies cited: Policy BCS21 of the 2011 adopted Bristol Core Strategy, Policy DM26 of the 2014 adopted Bristol Local Plan Site Allocations and Development Management Policies, Policy DM27 of the 2014 adopted Bristol Local Plan Site Allocations and Development Management Policies, Policy DM29 of the 2014 adopted Bristol Local Plan Site Allocations and Development Management Policies
