Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the development on protected trees
  • whether the development would provide appropriate site drainage
  • whether the development would incorporate measures to minimise carbon emissions

What decided it

The development would be likely to have an adverse long-term effect on protected trees covered by a Tree Preservation Order, with insufficient public benefits to outweigh the harm, and the appellant failed to demonstrate appropriate on-site drainage in a Critical Drainage Area.
