Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area, including the setting of the Linkfield Street Conservation Area

What decided it

The proposed landscaping scheme, combined with the existing prevalence of front parking along Grovehill Road and the distinction between the appeal site's urban character and the conservation area to the west, means the development would not cause material harm to character and appearance or the conservation area's significance.
