Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The impact of the proposal upon the character and appearance of the area and existing street trees
What decided it
The proposal would introduce a vehicle crossover through an intact grass verge that is a characteristic and attractive feature of the street scene, appearing as an alien feature that would be harmful to character and appearance, and the absence of an arboricultural impact assessment to assess potential damage to street trees of amenity value.
