- Appeal B: The effect of the use on the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties, with particular regard to noise and disturbance
What decided it
The nature and scale of the manufacturing use, involving regular employee attendance, deliveries, and waste collection in a quiet suburban residential setting, would result in a material change of use not incidental to the dwellinghouse and would cause significant harm to neighbouring residents' living conditions through noise and disturbance.
