Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on renewable energy provision
  • whether a replacement tree could be accommodated within the plot without affecting its long-term growth
  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
  • the living conditions of future occupiers, with particular reference to private amenity space

What decided it

The proposal would provide inadequate private amenity space for future occupiers, with a maximum rear garden depth of 9-9.5m against the required minimum of 11.5m, and would appear overdeveloped and out of character with the surrounding area.
