Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The principle of development, with regards to the loss of an employment site
  • The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of future occupiers, and the occupiers of No. 14 Clovelly Road, with particular regard to outlook and sunlight
  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area

What decided it

The failure to demonstrate that the employment site is no longer viable for continued use, combined with unacceptable harm to living conditions through loss of sunlight and outlook, means the proposal conflicts with the development plan with no material considerations to outweigh this harm.
