Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect on the character and appearance of the area
- The living conditions of the occupants of No 1 and No 3 Park Hill Road with regard to outlook, daylight and sunlight
- The effect on the highway network with regard to parking provision
- Whether the proposal would provide acceptable refuse and cycle storage facilities
- Whether the proposal would provide a satisfactory standard of residential accommodation for future occupiers, with regard to internal floor space
What decided it
The substantial harm to the character and appearance of the area caused by the bulky massing and length of the proposed dwelling, combined with unacceptable impacts on the living conditions of neighbouring occupants and unresolved highway parking concerns, outweighed the limited housing and economic benefits of the scheme.
