Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- whether or not the proposed development would provide satisfactory living conditions for the future occupiers of the dwelling proposed for plot 1, with particular regard to internal space and private amenity space
- whether or not the proposed development would provide satisfactory living conditions for the future occupiers of the dwelling proposed for plot 2, with particular regard to noise and disturbance
What decided it
The proposed development conflicts with the development plan across all three main issues—character and appearance, and living conditions for both plots—which strongly indicates planning permission should not be granted.
Plan policies cited: Policy D2, Policy D25, Policy S2, Policy S4, Policy S5
