Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, including its effect on the Woodcote Avenue Area of Special Local Character non-designated heritage asset and its effect on trees
- Whether the proposed development would incorporate satisfactory sustainable drainage, water efficiency and carbon emissions measures
- Whether development plan policy provides support for the proposed development's location
- The effect of the proposed development on biodiversity
What decided it
The material harm to the character and appearance of the Area of Special Local Character through effects on important trees and loss of rear garden land, combined with failure to demonstrate satisfactory sustainable drainage measures, outweighs the modest housing and economic benefits of the proposal.
