Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of 19 Weald Bridge Road, with particular regard to outlook
What decided it

The Framework's support for effective and efficient use of land and housing development did not outweigh the conflict with the development plan caused by significant harm to neighbouring living conditions.
