Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • The living conditions of occupiers at Bolt View having regard to privacy and noise
  • The living conditions of occupiers at 25 Court Park having regard to outlook and light

What decided it

The proposal's lack of coherent design with disparate materials, fenestration and forms would create a disjointed visual appearance harmful to the character and appearance of the area, conflicting with development plan policies requiring locally distinctive design.

Framework references: 130, 134

Plan policies cited: DEV20, DEV23, DEV1, TP1
