Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host property and the surrounding area
  • whether the proposal would provide adequate car parking
  • the effect of the proposal on the provision of affordable housing in the area
  • the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties, with particular regard to privacy

What decided it
