Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect that varying the opening hours imposed on the 2009 permission would have on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring residential properties, with particular regard to noise and disturbance
What decided it
The acoustic assessment demonstrated that noise from the proposed use would not exceed background levels during weekday and Saturday hours, but the quieter Sunday and Bank Holiday environment necessitated a later 08:00 opening time on those days to protect neighbouring residential amenity.
What the Inspector cited

- Policy CC2Policy EQ5
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 56
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
