Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • the living conditions of its future occupiers, with particular regard to outlook

What decided it

The proposed development would harm both the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of future occupiers through poor outlook, and these harms outweigh the limited benefit of providing one additional dwelling.
