Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the supply of family sized dwellings and access to public transport
  • whether appropriate living conditions would be provided for future occupiers of the development with particular regard to internal space standards
  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area with particular regard to parking
  • whether the proposal would make suitable provision for cycle parking and refuse storage

What decided it

The proposal's location in an area with poor public transport access (PTAL 1b) and failure to meet minimum bedroom widths for appropriate living conditions were the decisive factors in dismissing the appeal.
