Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development having regard to the character and appearance of the site and surrounding area
What decided it
The harm to the character and appearance of the area caused by the narrow plot width, diminutive nature of the building in comparison to neighbouring properties, and poor design significantly and demonstrably outweighed the benefits of housing supply and associated social and economic benefits.
The benefits of housing supply and associated social and economic benefits were significantly and demonstrably outweighed by the adverse impacts of harm to the character and appearance of the area, such that the presumption in favour of sustainable development did not apply.
