Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupants of No 108 Windsor Road, No 112 Windsor Road and No 23 Daleside Close with particular reference to outlook
  • the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The harm to the living conditions of the occupants of neighbouring properties No 108 and No 112, particularly regarding outlook, significantly and demonstrably outweighed the modest benefits of providing a single additional dwelling.

The adverse impacts on the living conditions of the nearest neighbours significantly and demonstrably outweighed the benefits of housing supply when assessed against the policies in the Framework taken as a whole, such that the presumption in favour of sustainable development did not apply.

Framework references: 11

Plan policies cited: Policy 3, Policy 4, Policy 37
