Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupants with specific regard to privacy and outlook
  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The failure to provide acceptable living conditions for future occupants, particularly in terms of privacy and outlook, attracts significant weight that outweighs the moderate benefits of housing delivery and sustainability.

The moderate benefits of housing delivery and sustainability were outweighed by the significant harm to living conditions for future occupants, resulting in a conflict with the development plan that was not overcome by the tilted balance under paragraph 11(d) of the Framework.

Framework references: 11

Plan policies cited: Policy DH1, Policy H5, Policy H(c), Policy D3, Policy D6
