Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on highway safety
  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host property and surrounding area

What decided it

The proposal would result in inadequate on-site parking, likely causing vehicles to park on the narrow shared surface of Alderton Close, creating significant highway safety risks that conflict with development plan policies.
