Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the River Avon Special Area of Conservation
  • The effect on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect on the living conditions of future occupiers and the occupiers of Nos. 64 and 66 Queen Alexandra Road, with particular regard to outlook and noise

What decided it

The absence of a secured planning obligation to provide the necessary financial contribution to mitigate the development's likely significant effect on the River Avon Special Area of Conservation through increased phosphorus discharge.

The small-scale housing benefit and limited economic benefits of one dwelling were outweighed by the potential adverse effect on the integrity of the River Avon Special Area of Conservation, with no material considerations sufficient to overcome the development plan conflict.
