Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the existing dwelling and the surrounding area

What decided it

The boat store's small scale, subordinate positioning, and visual screening mean it has an insignificant visual effect and is less prominent than the garages it replaced, thereby respecting the character and appearance of the area.
