Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • whether the proposed development would provide satisfactory living conditions for future occupiers
  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties

What decided it

The harm to character and appearance, and to the living conditions of both future and neighbouring occupiers, significantly and demonstrably outweighs the housing supply benefits when assessed against the Framework taken as a whole.

The benefits of housing supply and brownfield development were outweighed by the significant harm to character and appearance and the living conditions of future and neighbouring occupiers.

Framework references: 11, 135

Plan policies cited: Policy CS21, Policy CS41, saved Policy 6.8, Policy BAP1
