Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The impact of the development upon the character and appearance of the area in terms of the layout, the use of external materials, and overall design
- The living conditions of the occupiers of dwellings at 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 and 16 Linden Place in terms of outlook, and upon the occupiers of 317 Mapperley Plains in respect of privacy
- The living conditions of future occupiers of the proposed dwellings in terms of outside amenity spaces, privacy and outlook
What decided it
The combination of poor design quality through cramped layout and contrasting materials, together with inadequate distances to provide acceptable privacy and outlook for both existing and future occupiers, rendered the development unacceptable.
