Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • the living conditions of nearby occupiers with particular reference to 168 Woodside Green
  • highway safety with particular regard to car parking
  • the effect of the proposed development on the provision of accessible housing

What decided it

The multiple significant harms to character and appearance, living conditions of neighbours, and highway safety, taken together, outweighed the modest benefits of providing a family home in an accessible location.
