Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
- The suitability of the proposed access
What decided it
The proposed development would harm the character and appearance of the surrounding area by introducing an incongruous feature inconsistent with the predominant linear pattern of development, and this harm was not outweighed by the limited benefits of the proposal.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- COM 01GEN 02TR 02
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 130Paragraph 110Paragraph 111
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
