Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of 51, 53 and 55 Rosebank Road with particular regard to outlook, privacy, daylight and sunlight
  • Whether the proposal would provide adequate living conditions for future occupiers with regard to standard of accommodation and privacy

What decided it

The significant harm to the character and appearance of the area and to the living conditions of neighbouring residents would significantly and demonstrably outweigh the modest housing benefits, making the proposal unsustainable and contrary to the development plan.

The adverse impacts to character and appearance and to neighbouring living conditions significantly and demonstrably outweighed the benefits of housing delivery on a brownfield site, with the conflict with the development plan not outweighed by other considerations including the Framework.
