Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • whether the proposed development would provide satisfactory living conditions for the future occupants of the dwellings
  • whether the design and layout of the proposed access arrangements would be detrimental to the safety and efficiency of the highway network
  • whether the development would provide adequate cycle parking and refuse storage facilities for the occupants

What decided it

The proposal conflicts with the development plan across multiple policy areas (character and appearance, living conditions, highway safety, and refuse/cycle storage integration) and material considerations do not indicate the appeal should be decided other than in accordance with the development plan.

Plan policies cited: SP4, DM10, D3, D4, DM10.4, SP8, DM29, DM30, T3, T4, T6, DM13.1
