Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • Whether the proposal would be capable of providing suitable access for pedestrians and emergency vehicles
  • The effect on the living conditions of neighbouring occupants, with particular reference to outlook and sense of enclosure
  • The effect of the proposal on existing trees
  • Whether the proposal is capable of providing satisfactory storage for cycles, refuse and recycling

What decided it

The proposal would result in significant harm to the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of neighbouring residents through introducing an uncharacteristic backland development form with substantial massing that would overbear on adjacent gardens and significantly increase activity and disturbance.
