Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the appeal site and the surrounding area
  • The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of 7 Forty Lane with regard to outlook
  • Whether the proposed development would provide adequate living conditions for future occupiers with regard to outlook for the occupiers of the ground floor units and the provision of external amenity space
  • Whether the proposal would provide appropriate vehicle parking and the effect on highway safety

What decided it

The cumulative harm to character and appearance, living conditions of existing and future occupiers, and highway safety, none of which were outweighed by the provision of additional homes.
