Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on protected habitats
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of residents at 18 Beswick Avenue
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of future residents at the proposed dwelling
What decided it
The significant adverse impact on the designated habitat sites, which constitutes a clear reason for refusal under NPPF paragraph 11(d) footnote 7, outweighs the moderate benefits of housing delivery.
The moderate weight attached to housing delivery and economic benefits does not outweigh the significant harm to protected habitats of international importance and the conflicts with development plan policies on character, appearance and living conditions.
