Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • the living conditions of the occupiers of 19 Shirley Way with particular regard to privacy and the size of the retained garden
  • road user safety, with particular regard to the proposed crossover and parking arrangements

What decided it

The proposal would cause harm to character and appearance, living conditions through overlooking, and road user safety, with the modest housing benefits of a single dwelling insufficient to outweigh these material harms.
