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 occupiers of No.1A and future occupiers of the proposed dwelling

What decided it

The adverse impacts of granting planning permission—comprising harm to character and appearance and to living conditions of both existing and future occupiers—significantly and demonstrably outweigh the limited benefit of providing one additional dwelling in the context of a three-year housing land supply.

The benefit of providing one additional dwelling to the Council's housing supply was given limited positive weight, but the significant harms to character and appearance and to living conditions of existing and future occupiers were found to significantly and demonstrably outweigh this benefit under the tilted balance test.
