- Refuse and recycling facilities
- The character and appearance of the area
- The living conditions of future residents with regards to light

- Cycle storage
What decided it
The cumulative effect of significant harm in respect of car parking and highway safety, accessible housing, refuse and recycling facilities, and character and appearance, combined with failure to demonstrate adequate living conditions for future residents regarding light, outweighed the limited benefits of housing supply on previously developed land.
