- The effect of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the area
- Whether the proposed development would provide adequate living conditions for future occupiers in respect of land contamination
- The effect of the proposed development upon trees
- Whether the proposed development provides adequate water disposal
- The effect of the proposed development on the River Wye Special Area of Conservation (SAC)
What decided it
