Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development upon the character and appearance of the surrounding area

What decided it

The varied character of built form in the surrounding area, with dwellings of differing scales, styles, heights and materials, means the proposed dwelling would harmonise with its context and not appear unduly incongruous or harm the area's character.
