Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The reduced size and improved spacing of the current scheme compared to the previously dismissed proposal successfully addresses the former Inspector's concerns about cramped appearance and respect for the existing development pattern, allowing the dwelling to sit comfortably within the plot without unacceptably harming character and appearance.
