Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether or not the development is acceptable, having particular regard to flood risk
  • The effect upon the character and appearance of the area, having particular regard to the brick type and windows/doors utilised

What decided it

The harm to character and appearance caused by the brick type used, which is discordant with the dominant reconstituted stone palette of The Willows, outweighs the scheme's limited benefits and constitutes conflict with the development plan.

Development plan policies
Policy 4 of the South East Lincolnshire Local Plan 2011-2036Policy 2 of the South East Lincolnshire Local Plan 2011-2036Policy 3 of the South East Lincolnshire Local Plan 2011-2036
