Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of adjoining residential properties, with particular reference to noise and disturbance
  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions for existing and future occupants, with particular reference to room sizes and outdoor space
  • the effect of the proposed development on car parking to serve the existing and future occupiers of the site and highway safety

What decided it

The development would cause unacceptable harm to the living conditions of adjoining residential properties through noise and disturbance, combined with inadequate living conditions for future occupants and unresolved parking and highway safety concerns.
