Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

- The effect of the development on the living conditions of future occupants, with regards to privacy and outdoor amenity space
- The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
- Construction standards for water consumption and energy use
What decided it
The harm to the living conditions of neighbouring occupants through overlooking and the inadequate private outdoor amenity space for future occupants outweighed the benefits of additional housing supply.
