Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
- the effect of the development on the living conditions of the occupiers of no 25, with particular regard to outdoor space
- the effect of the development on flood risk and drainage
- the effect of the development on green infrastructure, ecology and biodiversity
What decided it
The substantial adverse impacts on the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of the existing occupiers significantly and demonstrably outweigh the very limited housing benefits of a single dwelling when assessed against the Framework policies as a whole.
The limited housing benefits and sustainable location were outweighed by the significant harms to character and appearance and living conditions; the adverse impacts significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits when assessed against the Framework policies taken as a whole.
