Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the surrounding area including the setting of the Bollin Hill Conservation Area
- highway safety
What decided it
The solid design and position of the gate creates a prominent and intrusive feature that harms the character and appearance of the area and the setting of the Conservation Area, and its location immediately to the rear of the footway obstructs highway access and pedestrian safety, with no public benefits outweighing these harms.
