Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effects of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the surrounding area
- the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers at 26 Naseby Road and 1 Glencoe Drive, with particular regard to outlook, levels of daylight, and the provision of external private amenity space
- the living conditions of future occupiers, with particular regard to the provision of external amenity space
What decided it
The unacceptable harm to character and appearance and to the living conditions of neighbouring and future occupiers significantly and demonstrably outweighs the limited benefits of an additional dwelling, even under the tilted balance.
The adverse impacts of unacceptable harm to character and appearance and living conditions significantly and demonstrably outweigh the small and limited benefits of housing supply contribution, assessed against the policies in the Framework taken as a whole.
