Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
- The effect on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties, with regards to outlook and privacy
What decided it
The development harms both the character and appearance of the area through its incongruous and visually dominant design elements, and harms the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through loss of privacy and overbearing outlook, contrary to the development plan and NPPF.
