Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

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

What decided it

The unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the area caused by the development's incongruent design, prominent siting, and intensification of use significantly outweighed the modest benefits of contributing one additional dwelling to housing supply.

The moderate weight of housing supply benefits and suitable accommodation was significantly and demonstrably outweighed by the substantial harm to character and appearance, such that the presumption in favour of sustainable development did not apply
