Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the development provides acceptable living conditions for neighbouring occupiers with particular regard to noise, vibration and odour
  • the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the appeal property and surrounding area including the Non-Designated Heritage Assets of 93 and 95 Green Lanes

What decided it

The combination of inadequate noise assessment and direct evidence of significant noise impact, coupled with the visually prominent and poorly integrated appearance of the metal ductwork, demonstrated conflicts with development plan policies protecting living conditions and character.
