Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the disputed conditions are necessary and reasonable having regard to the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area and on the living conditions of neighbouring residents with particular regard to noise and disturbance
What decided it
The location of the outbuilding at the rear of the property in an area of residential character, close to residential gardens and away from active frontage, means that allowing separate commercial use would unreasonably increase activity and noise and disturbance to neighbouring residents, outweighing any minimal benefit to retail vitality.
