Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of 332 Canford Lane (No 332), with particular regard to outlook
  • Whether the proposed development would encourage future occupiers to use a range of transport modes, with regard to the provision of cycle storage facilities
  • The effect of the proposed development on flood risk
  • The effect of the proposed development on highways safety

What decided it

The proposed development would unacceptably harm both the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of occupiers of the neighbouring property through an oppressive outlook, which conflicts with the development plan and cannot be justified by material considerations.
