Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the area, including the Bulwell Conservation Area
  • the effect of the proposed development on biodiversity

What decided it

The harm to the character and appearance of the Bulwell Conservation Area from the incongruous design and layout of the proposed bungalows, combined with the failure to provide adequate ecological assessment to address biodiversity concerns, outweighed the modest public benefits of the proposal.

Framework references: 208, 205
