Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host buildings and the area
  • whether the scheme would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupants, having regard to internal living space and private outdoor space
  • whether the scheme would provide an appropriate mix of housing
  • whether the scheme would inconvenience highway users, with particular regard to the location of the proposed cycle parking
  • whether the scheme would include appropriate sustainability measures
  • whether the scheme would suitably address biodiversity requirements

What decided it

The significant harm to character and appearance of the host buildings and streetscene, which would not be outweighed by the scheme's limited benefits.
