Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect on the character and appearance of the area
- Whether or not there would be an impact upon trees
- Whether or not there would be a pedestrian and highway safety concern
- The effect on the living conditions of neighbouring occupants with regards to levels of light and outlook
What decided it
The proposal would cause detrimental harm to the character and appearance of the local area through disruption of the distinctive building line pattern and would harm the living conditions of adjacent occupants, which could not be outweighed by the modest housing gain.
The modest increase of one additional dwelling did not outweigh the harm to character and appearance, trees, and neighbouring living conditions; the scheme conflicted with the development plan taken as a whole with no material considerations indicating otherwise.
