Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the site and surrounding area
  • Whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers with particular regard to amenity space provision, outlook and daylight
  • The effect of the proposed development on surface water drainage

What decided it

The proposed development would unacceptably harm the character and appearance of the site and surrounding area through its cramped form, contemporary design inconsistent with the traditional character, and visually prominent positioning.
