Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposed development would be in a suitable location having particular regard to the spatial strategy and the effect on the character and appearance of the area
  • the effect of the proposed development upon the living conditions of the occupiers of Belle Vue and Mayfield, with particular regard to increased pedestrian and vehicular traffic and the associated noise and disturbance

What decided it

The substantial harmful effect on the living conditions of the occupiers of Belle Vue and Mayfield through increased noise and disturbance from the proposed access road and associated traffic in close proximity to their dwellings outweighed the moderate benefits of housing supply.

The moderate benefits of housing supply and economic activity were outweighed by the substantial harm to the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers and the conflict with the development plan as a whole.
