Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- existing trees
- the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties, with regard to outlook and privacy
- highway safety with particular regard to parking provision
- measures to reduce car dependency and improve the highway
- the provision of cycle storage and refuse facilities
What decided it
The proposal's scale, massing and pattern of built form would result in an overly dominant development that harms the character and appearance of the area and would cause unacceptable overlooking of neighbouring properties, contrary to the development plan.
