Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

- whether the development would provide satisfactory accommodation for its future occupiers with regards to internal space standards and amenity space provision
- whether the proposed development would deliver an adequate mix of homes
What decided it
The proposal was found to comply with the relevant Local Plan policies on parking, amenity standards and housing mix, such that it accorded with the development plan as a whole.
the proposal accords with the development plan as a whole and there were no other material considerations indicating a decision other than in accordance with the plan, so the appeal was allowed
