Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the principle of development in a rear garden location
  • the effect that the proposal would have on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
  • whether the proposal provides adequate living conditions for future occupiers, with respect to the provision of light and cross ventilation
  • whether the proposal would provide appropriate facilities for cycle parking
  • whether the proposal would provide appropriate facilities for bin storage
  • whether the proposal would meet sustainability and carbon reduction requirements

What decided it

The proposal would harm the established character and appearance of the surrounding area by introducing a single-storey rear garden dwelling that does not reflect the form, grain or street pattern of existing development, thereby conflicting with the development plan.
