Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the building on the character and appearance of the area
  • Whether suitable living conditions are provided for occupiers of the building, having regard to internal floorspace, outlook, privacy and outdoor amenity space
  • The effect on the living conditions of occupiers of adjoining residential property, having regard to privacy and noise and disturbance
  • The effect on highway safety, having regard to the provision made for vehicle parking

What decided it

The building causes unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the area, provides an unsuitable living environment for occupiers, and causes unacceptable harm to the living conditions of adjoining occupiers, all failing to accord with the Development Plan.
