Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the street scene
  • Local landscaping as a result of impact on trees

What decided it

The combination of poor visual integration of the new dwelling within the street scene and the substantial harm caused by the loss of protected street trees that contribute positively to the verdant character of the area.
