Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the appeal proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • the effect of the appeal proposal on the living conditions of the occupants of the neighbouring dwelling
  • the effect of the appeal proposal on highway safety, with particular regard to parking and vehicular movements

What decided it

The proposal would cause significant harm to the living conditions of the neighbouring occupants through unacceptable noise, disturbance and loss of privacy, combined with harm to character and appearance and highway safety concerns, with no material considerations to outweigh the development plan conflict.
