Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would provide satisfactory living conditions for future occupiers, with particular regard to the provision of internal accommodation, private amenity space and outlook
What decided it
The failure to provide satisfactory living conditions for future occupiers, particularly regarding internal accommodation, private amenity space and outlook, constitutes significant harm that outweighs the housing supply benefits even under the tilted balance.
The benefits of housing delivery and effective use of brownfield land were outweighed by the significant harm to living conditions of future occupiers, with the adverse impacts significantly and demonstrably outweighing the benefits when assessed against the Framework as a whole
