Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The character and appearance of the area
- The living conditions of future residents of the site in respect of light, outlook and privacy
- The living conditions of neighbouring residents in respect of outlook
- Windfall sites and previously developed land
- Parking provision
- Other considerations relevant to the planning balance
What decided it
The significant harm to character and appearance and to the living conditions of both future and neighbouring residents outweighs the limited benefits of the proposal, contrary to the planning balance required by Policy CS10-4(b) of the Core Strategy.
