Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether or not the proposal would provide adequate, useable and accessible refuse storage facilities
- whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Chatsworth Road Conservation Area
- whether or not the proposal would result in unacceptable parking pressure in the area
What decided it
The great weight afforded to the harm to the conservation area combined with the failure to provide adequate, usable and accessible bin storage facilities clearly outweighed any public or other benefits.
