Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers with particular regard to noise and disturbance
  • Whether sufficient information has been provided to determine that there would not be an adverse impact on protected species
  • Whether the development would make sufficient and adequate provision for pedestrian access for future users

What decided it

The substantial and significant harmful effects on the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, which conflict with the development plan and are not outweighed by the moderate economic benefits of the proposal.
