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 occupiers in Simpson Street, with particular regard to outlook

What decided it

The proposed development would breach the 50% built form policy threshold and create a cramped, overbearing development that would harm both the character of the area and the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, with these harms outweighing the housing supply benefits.
