Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of existing occupiers, with particular reference to privacy, daylight, sunlight and outlook
  • the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of future occupiers with particular reference to privacy, noise, disturbance, odour and amenity space
  • whether or not the proposal makes suitable provision for the safe access and parking of vehicles and operation of the local highway network

What decided it

The cumulative harm to character and appearance, living conditions of both existing and future occupiers, and highway safety and operation, none of which were outweighed by the housing supply benefits, justified dismissal of the appeal.
