Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area

What decided it

The unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the surrounding area caused by the design approach failing to reflect the scale, proportion and prevailing pattern of the street outweighed the modest housing benefits in circumstances where the Council had failed its Housing Delivery Test.

the adverse impacts on character and appearance significantly and demonstrably outweighed the limited social, economic and environmental benefits when assessed against the policies in the Framework taken as a whole, such that the presumption in favour of sustainable development did not apply
