Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of occupiers of 51a and 53 Brethergate with respect to noise and disturbance
  • whether the site is a suitable location for the proposed development having regard to the local development strategy
  • the effect of the proposed development on the Isle of Axholme Area of Special Historic Landscape Interest

What decided it

The significant harm to the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers from noise and disturbance caused by the restricted access, combined with the site's unsuitability under the local development strategy, outweighed the benefits of housing delivery.

The benefits of housing delivery and associated economic and social benefits were outweighed by the significant harm to neighbouring living conditions and the conflict with the development plan's settlement strategy.
