Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of occupiers of 29 Stanger Road, with particular regard to outlook and the provision of light
  • whether the proposal would provide adequate refuse and cycle storage
  • the effect on highway safety, with particular regard to an increase of on-street parking

What decided it

The proposal conflicts with the development plan across multiple policy areas (character and appearance, living conditions, refuse and cycle storage, and highway safety) and material considerations do not indicate the appeal should be decided otherwise.
