Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the surrounding area, including the loss of existing trees
  • The effect of the proposal on highway safety
  • The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties, with particular reference to noise and disturbance

What decided it

The proposal would cause harm to character and appearance through loss of an existing tree, would compromise highway safety by obstructing the pavement, and would generate significant noise and disturbance to neighbouring residents that could not be adequately mitigated.

Plan policies cited: Policy GI9, Policy UD1, Policy UD2, Policy H7, Policy TP6, Policy SP4
