Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the local area with reference to design quality and building line
  • The living conditions of potential occupiers with reference to the size of the residential units and the quality and potential overlooking of amenity space

What decided it

The proposal would result in significant harm to the character and appearance of the local area through its incongruous roof form and building line misalignment, and would provide substandard living conditions with inadequate and poorly private amenity spaces.

Framework references: 12

Plan policies cited: Policy ENV 39, Policy H3, Policy H6, Policy H7, Policy D3, Policy D6, Policy D12, Policy 6
