Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- the living conditions of the occupiers of No 12 Finborough Road, No 16 Finborough Road and 16A Finborough Road with particular regard to privacy and noise and disturbance
What decided it
The proposed development would have a harmful effect on both the character and appearance of the area and the privacy of neighbouring occupiers, conflicting with the development plan with no material considerations to justify approval.
