Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed development would result in acceptable living conditions for future occupiers, with regard to the shading of gardens from trees, and noise and disturbance
  • The effect upon the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The proposed development would cause unacceptable harm to the living conditions of future occupiers through shading from trees and noise from the access road, and would adversely affect the character and appearance of the area through inappropriate backland development that would erode the spacious, verdant quality of the locality.
