Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed dwelling on the character and appearance of the area
- The living conditions of future occupiers of the proposal with specific regard to outlook and light
- The living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, with particular regard to garden provision for No 46 High Street
What decided it
The harm to character and appearance from introducing a primary residential dwelling in a location traditionally occupied by secondary buildings, combined with unacceptable living conditions for future occupiers due to poor light and outlook, outweighed the neutral impact of the building's form and materials.
