Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed garage to the front and associated landscaping works on the character and appearance of the host property and surrounding area
  • Whether the proposed green wall to the southeast side of the proposed garage to front would obstruct the public footpath to the eastern side of the site for users of the footpath

What decided it

The proposed front garage would unacceptably harm the character and appearance of the host property and surrounding area by virtue of its bulk, form and visual prominence, contrary to development plan policies requiring good design appropriate to location.

Plan policies cited: Policy P10, Policy P12, Policy GP5, Policy BD6, Policy N25, Policy LD1, Policy HDG1
