Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would provide appropriate living conditions for future occupiers, with regard to internal space, privacy, outlook and daylight/sunlight
- whether the development would encourage future occupiers to use a range of transport modes, with particular regard to the provision of cycle storage facilities
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
What decided it
The proposed development fails to provide satisfactory living conditions regarding privacy and outlook, fails to encourage sustainable transport through accessible cycle storage, and fails to preserve the character and appearance of the area through poor refuse provision and garden subdivision.
