Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • Density of development, with due regard to planning policy
  • Whether the proposal would make suitable provision for car parking
  • The living conditions of neighbouring residents with regards to outlook

What decided it

The proposal would cause significant harm to the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of neighbouring residents through its backland location, overdeveloped nature, and overbearing impact, which cannot be justified by the limited benefits of a single dwelling.
