Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
- Effect of the proposal on the living conditions of neighbouring and future occupiers
What decided it
The significant harm to character and appearance and living conditions of both neighbouring and future occupiers, cumulatively outweighing the moderate benefits of housing delivery on previously developed land.
The moderate benefits of 19 new dwellings on previously developed land with good access to facilities and transport, and small economic benefits, were outweighed by the significant cumulative harm to character and appearance and the living conditions of neighbouring and future occupiers.
