Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the area
  • The living conditions of the existing occupiers of 20 Nettleton Drive with regard to outlook
  • The living conditions of the future occupiers of the proposed dwelling with particular regard to outlook, light and the quality and quantity of garden space

What decided it

The siting and form of the proposed dwelling would result in a discordant development materially harming character and appearance, and the proximity to the protected tree would create inappropriate living conditions for future occupiers in terms of outlook, daylight and sunlight.
