Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
  • Whether the appeal site is a suitable location for the proposed development having regard to its accessibility to services and facilities and sustainable modes of transport

What decided it

The proposed development would not be commensurate with the spacious character and plot spacing of existing dwellings in the area, thereby failing to comply with Local Plan Policy DM27(b) and conflicting with the development plan taken as a whole.
