Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the living condition of occupiers of Impact House, with particular regard to daylight and outlook
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- The effect of the proposal on the historic environment
What decided it
The very significant weight attached to the harm to living conditions of Impact House occupiers from loss of daylight, combined with heritage harm, outweighed the benefits of housing, affordable housing and employment delivery.
The significant benefits of new homes, affordable housing and employment provision were outweighed by the very significant harm to living conditions from loss of daylight and the less than substantial heritage harm, so the balance tipped against the proposal.
