Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect that the amendments to Plot 6 would have on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers of properties in Old Lane with particular regard to privacy
- the effect that the amendments to Plot 6 would have on the living conditions of future occupiers of Plot 5 with particular regard to light and outlook
- the effect that the amendments to Plot 6 would have on the character and appearance of the area with regards to design
What decided it
The re-siting of Plot 6 would cause unacceptable loss of privacy to neighbouring occupiers in Old Lane and unacceptable loss of outlook to future occupiers of Plot 5, contrary to the development plan and NPPF.
