Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

- Effects on the living conditions of those living nearby

What decided it
The proposal's visual subservience to existing built forms, particularly the adjacent flat block, combined with the site's minimal contribution to the street scene and the acceptable mitigation of neighbour amenity impacts through design measures, meant the development would not conflict with the development plan.
