Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Appeal A: the effects of the development on the character and appearance of the appeal property and the wider area
  • Appeal A: the living conditions of existing and future occupiers of neighbouring dwellings, having particular regard to the effects on No. 110 Upton Way
  • Appeal B: the living conditions of existing and future occupiers of neighbouring dwellings, having particular regard to the effects on No. 110 Upton Way

What decided it

Appeal A's prominent gable frontage and excessive massing would appear incongruous and harmful to the character and appearance of the area, whereas Appeal B's design would appropriately assimilate within its surrounding context.

Framework references: 130

Plan policies cited: Policy PP27 of the Poole Local Plan (2018), Policy BP 8 of the Broadstone Neighbourhood Plan 2013 to 2033 (2018)
