Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
  • Whether or not adequate arrangements are made for the disposal of surface water from the site
  • The effect of the proposed development with regard to carbon emissions

What decided it

The appeal proposal would be more harmful to the character and appearance of the surrounding area than the fallback Class Q conversion scheme, and this harm could not be justified by material considerations of sufficient weight to warrant a decision contrary to the development plan.
