Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would accord with the Council's development strategy for garden land
- whether the proposed development, including refuse enclosure, would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Roxborough Park and Grove Conservation Area and the effect of the proposed development on the setting of nearby listed buildings
- whether the proposal would provide a suitable living environment for future occupiers with regard to outlook, light, privacy, noise, private amenity space and accessibility
- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers with regard to outlook, light and privacy
What decided it
The unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the conservation area and the setting of listed buildings, combined with the failure to provide suitable living environments for future occupiers, outweighed the limited housing supply benefits.
