Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
- Whether adequate internal living conditions would be provided for future occupiers
What decided it
The proposal would not harm character and appearance, would provide satisfactory internal living conditions, would accord with the development plan as a whole, and there were no material considerations to outweigh that finding.
The conflict with Policy DM4 on internal space standards was outweighed by conformity with the subsequent national space standards and the benefits of delivering housing on a suitable site within an existing settlement.
Framework references: 56
Plan policies cited: Policy DM1, Policy DM3, Policy DM4
