Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • The living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties with particular regard to the privacy, outlook, noise and disturbance and future occupiers with regard to access to private outdoor space of the proposed development
  • Biodiversity, trees and green infrastructure

What decided it

The proposal would create an unacceptable over-intensification and suburbanising effect in a semi-rural location characterised by detached dwellings in large open plots, conflicting with Policies LLP1, LLP15 and LLP25 and causing harm to neighbouring living conditions.

Framework references: 12

Plan policies cited: Policy LLP1, Policy LLP15, Policy LLP25
