Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- Whether the proposed development would provide suitable flood risk management and surface water drainage
What decided it
The proposed development would cause unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the area by introducing incongruous, cramped and visually intrusive built form that fails to integrate with the surrounding area.
The small contribution to housing supply in an area with a demonstrable five-year housing land supply did not outweigh the unacceptable harm to character and appearance.
