Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the locality
  • The effect of the proposed development upon the living conditions of the existing and future occupiers, with particular regard to the provision of private garden space, standard of accommodation, privacy, and outlook
  • The effect of the proposed development upon the street tree to the front of the proposed dwelling
  • Whether the vehicular crossover is appropriate to cater for the proposed development, taking into account policies relating to vehicle crossovers

What decided it

The proposal fails to accord with the development plan due to cumulative harm to character and appearance, living conditions through overlooking, insufficient tree impact information, and procedural defects regarding the vehicular crossover.
