Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area, including a nearby locally listed building
- The effect of the development on the living conditions of neighbouring residents, with regards to privacy, dominance, and shadowing
- Whether the development would provide its occupants with suitable living conditions, with particular regard to minimum internal space standards
- Whether the appeal site is a suitable location for the development having regard to flood risk
What decided it
The proposal conflicts with the development plan on multiple grounds—character and appearance, heritage assets, neighbours' living conditions, and flood risk—and no considerations justify departing from the development plan.
