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 trees and ecology
- the effect of the proposal on affordable housing contribution
What decided it
The harm to the character and appearance of the area, combined with harm to trees and ecology, outweighed the benefits of the scheme including the affordable housing contribution.
the small-scale benefits associated with three new dwellings, even in combination, did not outweigh the substantial harm to character and appearance and the harm to trees and ecology
