Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of 56 Field Rise with regard to privacy, and the occupiers of 58 Field Rise with regard to privacy and outlook
  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The adverse impacts of granting planning permission, comprising harm to living conditions of neighbouring occupiers and harm to character and appearance, would significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits of providing one additional dwelling in a context of housing land supply shortfall.

the adverse impacts comprising harm to living conditions of neighbouring occupiers and harm to character and appearance significantly and demonstrably outweighed the moderate benefits of providing one additional dwelling and contributing to housing supply, such that the presumption in favour of sustainable development did not apply
