Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the area including the setting and significance of non-designated heritage assets
  • the effect of the proposed development upon the living conditions of the occupiers of The Forge and No 8 Chestnut Lane with particular reference to outlook, privacy, daylight and overshadowing

What decided it

The proposal's compliance with the outline permission parameters, its high-quality design appropriate to local context, and the effective mitigation of potential impacts on neighbouring living conditions through layout, design features and conditions meant the development would not cause material harm to character, appearance, heritage assets or neighbours.
