What decided it
The cumulative harm to character and appearance, living conditions of neighbours, and highway safety, which significantly and demonstrably outweighed the benefits of housing delivery and efficient land use.
The benefits of housing delivery and efficient land use were outweighed by the adverse impacts on character and appearance, living conditions of occupiers, and highway safety, such that the proposal would not comprise sustainable development.
