Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposed development would make adequate provision for vehicular access and parking, in the interests of highway safety
  • the effect of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the area
  • whether the proposed development would provide satisfactory living conditions for the future occupiers, with regard to internal space standards

What decided it

The proposal failed to demonstrate adequate vehicular and pedestrian access provision due to insufficient information on level changes and constrained frontage width, which was compounded by harmful impacts on character and appearance and inadequate internal space standards for future occupiers.
