Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of those parts of the proposal which the Council found unacceptable on the living conditions of the occupiers of the adjacent dwelling to the north with particular regard to noise, activity and visual intrusion
- The effect of those parts of the proposal which the Council found unacceptable on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The size, scale and proximity of the metal containers and implement store to the northern boundary, combined with the visibility of one container and concerns about earth bund stability, would result in unacceptable harm to the living conditions of the neighbouring property Apperley.
