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 36 Clowes Avenue and 3, 4 and 5 Solent View, with particular regard to outlook and privacy

What decided it

The adverse impacts of harm to character and appearance and to the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits of the self-build project, which would not contribute to housing land supply as a replacement dwelling.

the adverse impacts of the proposed development, particularly harm to character and appearance and neighbouring living conditions, significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits of the self-build project and climate change adaptation, which would be largely site-specific and would not provide significant economic, social and environmental benefits to the local area
