Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the existing building and the surrounding area

What decided it

The shortfall in housing land supply and the engagement of paragraph 11(d) of the Framework, combined with the proposal's accordance with design-led policies and the absence of any clear reason for refusal under the Framework, meant that the benefits of housing delivery significantly and demonstrably outweighed any adverse impacts.

The benefits of housing delivery and use of previously developed land, afforded great weight in the context of the housing undersupply, significantly and demonstrably outweighed any adverse impacts when assessed against the policies in the Framework taken as a whole

Framework references: 11, 56

Plan policies cited: Policy 4, Policy 8, Policy 37
