Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area including the Chilterns National Landscape
  • the living conditions of the occupiers of Nos 34 and 36 High Street with particular regard to outlook
  • highway safety
  • ecology and biodiversity

What decided it

The proposed new dwelling would be harmful to character and appearance, living conditions of neighbours, highway safety, and biodiversity, with these conflicts with the development plan outweighing the limited housing benefits.
