Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the siting and appearance of the proposed installation on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
- the effect of the siting of the proposed installation on car parking provision
- if any harm would occur, whether this is outweighed by the need for the installation to be sited as proposed taking into account any suitable alternatives
What decided it
The siting and appearance of the proposed installation would have a significantly harmful effect on the character and appearance of the surrounding area, and this harm is not outweighed by the need for the installation to be sited as proposed given that suitable alternatives have not been properly explored.
