Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effects of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area, including the streetscene
- the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties
What decided it
The unacceptable harm to character and appearance and to neighbouring living conditions, combined with conflict with design and amenity policies, significantly and demonstrably outweighs the housing supply benefits, particularly where the scheme is a replacement rather than additional dwelling.
the unacceptable harm to character, appearance and living conditions, together with conflict with design and amenity policies, significantly and demonstrably outweighed the benefits of housing delivery, particularly where the appeal scheme is for a replacement dwelling rather than adding to the number of homes in the District
