Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • In Appeal B only: whether the development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers of proposed Houses 3 and 4, with particular regard to outlook, enclosure, and daylight

What decided it

The significant harm to character and appearance caused by introducing substantial built form and hardstanding into a spacious, verdant suburban area with generous plots, combined in Appeal B with unacceptable living conditions for future occupiers, outweighed the moderate benefits of housing delivery.
