Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect upon the character and appearance of the area
  • The likely long-term effect upon protected trees
  • Whether or not acceptable living conditions would be provided for future occupiers of the development, having particular regard to outlook and access to light

What decided it

The likely long-term effect upon protected trees and unacceptable living conditions for future occupiers, which would significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits of housing delivery under the tilted balance.

The harms arising from the likely long-term effect upon protected trees and unacceptable living conditions for future occupiers significantly and demonstrably outweighed the proposal's benefits of delivering one additional energy-efficient residential unit and modest economic benefits, such that the presumption in favour of sustainable development did not apply.
