Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal upon the character and appearance of the area
- The effect of the proposal upon the living conditions of neighbouring residents, in particular with regards to potential noise and disturbance from the proposed access
- The effect of the proposal upon the Thames Basin Heath Special Protection Area (the SPA)
What decided it
The proposed development would appear as a cramped, overly contrived form of backland development out of keeping with the low-density character of the area, and would introduce unacceptable noise and disturbance through vehicular access and activity to neighbouring residents.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy BF1Policy CS7Policy EN20
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
