Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect on the character and appearance of the area including the effect on existing trees
  • the effect on the living conditions of the occupiers of dwellings to the rear of the site with particular regard to outlook, daylight and sunlight
  • the effect of the proposed layout on highway and pedestrian safety and parking provision
  • whether the provision of refuse facilities and cycle parking is sufficient
  • whether the proposal would provide adequate fire safety precautions for future occupiers

What decided it

The proposal's harmful effects on character and appearance, living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, and highway and pedestrian safety, combined with conflicts with the development plan, outweighed any benefits and led to dismissal.
