Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
  • whether the appeal site can accommodate the scale and form of development proposed having regard to the living conditions of the occupiers of the neighbouring dwellings 110 to 126 (inclusive) Woodhouse Road, and 130, 132 and 134 Matcham Road in respect of overshadowing, outlook and privacy, and the living conditions of future occupiers of the proposed dwellings in respect of overshadowing, outlook, and the adequacy of private outdoor amenity space
  • the effect of the proposed development on the supply and availability of general industrial land and premises in the Borough

What decided it

The constrained nature of the site makes it impossible to accommodate three detached dwellings that would meet minimum policy standards for internal space and private amenity while avoiding unacceptable harm to the character of the area and the living conditions of both neighbouring and future residents.

Plan policies cited: Policy 28, Policy 53, Policy 56, Policy 57
