Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of residents of surrounding properties, with regard to noise and disturbance
  • highway safety

What decided it

The noise and activity from the hot food takeaway would be consistent with the existing character of the area as a mixed-use commercial parade with evening activity, and could be adequately controlled through conditions to protect neighbouring residents.
