Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The impact of the proposal on the character and appearance of the local area
  • Whether or not the proposal would lead to an adverse effect upon the living conditions of neighbouring occupants by way of noise and disturbance
  • Whether or not the proposal would have an adverse impact upon the future occupants of the development with regards to private external space and accessibility to the site

What decided it

The proposal's incongruous design that would appear visually intrusive and harmful to character and appearance, combined with insufficient private external space for future occupants, meant it conflicted with the development plan.
