Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
- the effect of the proposal on trees and biodiversity
What decided it
The proposal would harm both the character and appearance of the area through its incongruous prominence and cramped appearance, and would harm trees and biodiversity through likely conflicts between the development and existing/proposed trees.
