Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed residential development on the character and appearance of the street scene in Moor Lane, Moorfield Drive, and the surrounding area
What decided it
The proposed development would not materially harm the character and appearance of the street scene and would accord with development plan policies and the presumption in favour of sustainable development.
The benefits of providing two high-quality properties in an accessible location within the urban area, contributing to housing supply and reflecting local design policies, outweighed the loss of garden space, which was acceptable subject to conditions securing biodiversity gains.
