Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host building and its surroundings
  • The effect of the proposed development on nearby trees

What decided it

Framework references: 12

Plan policies cited: Policy CP1, Policy CP12, Policy DM1, Policy DM6
