Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect of the proposed dwellings on the living conditions of occupiers of 4 and 5 Angus Close, with particular regard to outlook and access to sunlight

What decided it

The proposal accords with the development plan taken as a whole, with no material considerations indicating determination other than in accordance with the plan, and the housing supply objective supports the grant of permission.

The proposal's contribution to housing supply and location close to Kimberley town centre, combined with its accordance with the development plan and absence of material harm to character, appearance or neighbouring living conditions, outweighed any concerns and justified allowing the appeal.
