Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the appeal site is a suitable location for the development proposed, having regard to the Council's housing strategy
- the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
- the effect of the development on the living conditions of the occupiers of 40A, 40B, 40C and 42B Spencer Road with particular regard to outlook and light
What decided it
The proposal conflicts with the development plan on three grounds—unsuitable location contrary to housing strategy, harm to character and appearance, and significant harm to neighbouring living conditions—and no material considerations outweigh these identified harms.
