Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • whether the proposal makes adequate provision to restrict residential car parking permits

What decided it

The positioning of the built form would interrupt the building line and existing pattern of development to an appreciable degree, causing moderate harm to character and appearance that would not be outweighed by the modest benefits of the proposal.

The moderate harm to character and appearance would neither be outweighed nor addressed by the modest benefits resulting from the proposal, including the provision of two dwellings and environmental, economic and social benefits.
