Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal upon the living conditions of the occupiers of the recently built dwelling, and whether it would secure adequate living conditions for the future occupiers of plots 01 and 02
  • The character and appearance of the area, including the Marshfield Conservation Area

What decided it

The proposal would fail to secure adequate living conditions for future occupiers of Plot 01 due to severe overlooking from Red Cedar House, and would cause considerable harm to the character and appearance of the conservation area that could not be outweighed by the identified public benefits.
