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 the neighbouring dwellings, with regard to outlook and loss of privacy
- the effect of the proposed development on biodiversity
What decided it
The proposed backland dwelling would harm the character and appearance of the area by introducing urbanisation to a semi-rural location contrary to the prevailing linear development pattern, which constitutes conflict with the development plan that cannot be overcome.
