Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the appeal site is an appropriate location for housing having regard to the settlement strategy
- the effect on the character and appearance of the area
- whether the proposal would provide acceptable living conditions for the future occupants with particular regard to noise and disturbance
What decided it
The proposal fails to accord with the settlement strategy as the site is not an appropriate location for housing, and future occupants would be exposed to unacceptable noise and disturbance from surrounding industrial uses over which they would have no control.
