Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the suitability of the site as a location for the proposed residential development, with particular reference to the spatial strategy in the development plan
- 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 future occupants, with particular reference to internal layout and garden space
What decided it
The unsuitability of the site's location due to poor public transport accessibility combined with the adverse effects on character and appearance and future occupants' living conditions outweighed the benefit of additional housing provision.
