Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The impact of the proposal upon the host property, street scene and character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The proposal would result in a visually bulky and prominent garage structure with excessive roof massing that would be uncharacteristic of and create unacceptable visual contrast within the modest terraced street scene.

Plan policies cited: The Plan for Stafford Borough 2014 Policy N1, Stone Neighbourhood Plan (2016 – 2031) Policy H2
