Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host property and surrounding area
- Whether the proposed development would provide an adequate standard of residential accommodation for future occupiers with particular regard to the provision of external amenity space and to the internal size of the 4-bed unit
What decided it
The unacceptable harm to character and appearance combined with the failure to provide adequate external amenity space for the 4-bed family unit meant the proposal conflicted with the development plan with no material considerations to outweigh this harm.
