Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect on the streetscene and the character and appearance of the locality
- The effect on the living conditions of the occupiers of the adjacent dwellings at 112 and 116a Saxonhurst Road with particular regard to whether the development would appear overbearing
What decided it
The development would harm the streetscene and character and appearance of the locality by appearing overly dominant and cramped, conflicting with the development plan and design guidance, and would appear overbearing to neighbouring occupiers.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy CS41
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
