Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of existing and future occupiers, in terms of overlooking and loss of privacy
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of future occupiers, in respect of access and the overall standard of accommodation
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the site and surrounding area, with particular regards to trees
What decided it
The proposed development would cause harmful overlooking and loss of privacy to existing and future occupiers, combined with inadequate access provision and insufficient evidence to protect trees, which together conflict with the development plan and material considerations do not indicate the decision should be made otherwise.
