Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed building on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The proposed building would cause unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the area by disrupting the established hierarchy of built form and being substantially larger than other outbuildings, conflicting with development plan policies that require preservation of local character.

Plan policies cited: Policy ENV2 of the Black Country Core Strategy 2011, Saved Policy GP2 of the Walsall Unitary Development Plan 2005, Saved Policy ENV32 of the Walsall Unitary Development Plan 2005, Policy HOU2 of the Black Country Core Strategy 2011
