Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The proposal would cause significant harm to the character and appearance of the area through erosion of the plot-to-dwelling ratio, breach of the established building line, and loss of symmetry on a prominent corner plot, which outweighs the limited housing benefits given the proposal's small scale.

The adverse impacts of allowing the appeal would significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits and the presumption in favour of sustainable development would not apply
