Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupants of 2 and 3 Hodson Drive, with particular reference to outlook, day and sunlight and noise and disturbance
  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The overbearing impact on the outlook from No 2 Hodsons Drive, combined with the harmful effect on the character and appearance of the area through overdevelopment of the site, rendered the proposal contrary to the development plan with no material considerations of sufficient weight to outweigh this conflict.
