Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
- whether the scheme would provide adequate cycle storage facilities
- the living conditions of future occupiers, with particular regard to amenity space
What decided it
The adverse character and appearance impacts of the scheme, arising from the third storey projecting significantly above the eaves and dominating the modest 2-storey surrounding built form, outweighed the benefits of providing 9 dwellings and commercial space on a brownfield windfall site.
