Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of occupiers of No. 3 The Ridgeway with regard to privacy
  • The effect of the proposed development on ecology and biodiversity
  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect of the proposed development on trees

What decided it

The significant adverse harm to the living conditions of occupiers of No. 3 The Ridgeway through overlooking, combined with the inability to determine the ecological impact without required surveys, meant the proposal conflicted with the development plan and could not be approved.

Plan policies cited: Policy DM01, Policy DM02, Policy DM16, Policy CS5, Policy CS1, Policy CSNPPF
