Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the supply of family sized dwellings and access to public transport
- whether appropriate living conditions would be provided for future occupiers of the proposed development with particular regard to adequate internal ceiling height
- whether the proposed development would achieve the highest standards of fire safety
What decided it
The proposal's conflict with Policy BH11 due to poor public transport accessibility (PTAL 2) and the failure to meet minimum ceiling height requirements under Policy D6 outweighed the modest housing supply benefits.
Plan policies cited: Policy BH11, Policy BH4, Policy D6, Policy D12, Policy H10
