Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed development would effect the character and appearance of the area
- whether the proposed development would effect the living conditions of adjacent neighbours in relation to outlook
- the effect of the development on flood risk
What decided it
The proposal fails to satisfy the sequential test for flood risk as it would introduce a more vulnerable development into Flood Zone 3b without justification, and would cause material harm to character and appearance and neighbouring amenity.
