Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surroundings
  • Whether the scheme would provide satisfactory living conditions for occupiers of the proposed new residential accommodation
  • Whether the proposed development would be susceptible to an unacceptable risk to people or to property in the event of flooding

What decided it

The proposed development would create an overdevelopment of the site with insufficient design quality and would not make a positive visual contribution to the area, conflicting with national and local planning policies requiring high quality design.

Framework references: 12, 14

Plan policies cited: Policy D3, Policy D6, Policy CS1, Policy DM1, Policy DM9
