Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • the Council's spatial strategy for growth in respect of development on garden land

What decided it

The proposed garage would be out of scale with its setting and would appear as an overly dominant and incongruous feature in the streetscene, conflicting with the uniform and spacious character and appearance of the area.
