Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of neighbouring residents at Nos. 17 and 18 Cross Lanes
What decided it
The significant weight given to the conflict with development plan policies on character and design, combined with the harmful impacts on neighbouring living conditions, outweighed the limited housing delivery benefits of a single dwelling in circumstances where the Council cannot demonstrate a five-year supply.
the adverse impacts of harm to character and appearance and living conditions of neighbours significantly and demonstrably outweighed the limited benefits of housing delivery and socio-economic benefits from one additional dwelling
