Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of future occupiers of the proposed dwelling

What decided it

The proposal would harm the character and appearance of the area by jeopardising the long-term health of mature trees that are important features of the street scene, and would fail to provide adequate daylight for future occupiers.
