Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers and whether the living conditions of future occupiers of the proposed development would be acceptable, with particular regard to privacy and outlook
What decided it
The harmful effect on character and appearance combined with unacceptable harm to the living conditions of neighbouring and future occupiers regarding privacy and outlook outweighed the housing supply and other benefits.
the benefits of housing supply and windfall development did not outweigh the harm to character and appearance and living conditions of neighbouring and future occupiers
