Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the Hessle (Southfield) Conservation Area, with particular regard to the proposal's design
- The effect upon the living conditions for the intended occupiers of the flats at No. 40 Southfield, with particular regard to any noise and disturbance from the proposed access
- Whether there would be satisfactory living conditions for the intended occupiers of the proposed dwelling, with particular regard to the size of the outdoor space and the relationship to nearby trees
What decided it
The proposed development would cause less than substantial but significant harm to the character and appearance of the designated heritage asset (conservation area), and the limited public benefits of providing one additional dwelling do not outweigh this harm under paragraph 202 of the Framework.
