Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The building erected was substantially different from that approved in its form, height, materials and openings, and its prominent siting in an open area contrary to neighbourhood plan building lines caused harm to the character and appearance of the area that could not be justified.
