Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- Living conditions of future residents with regards to outlook, light, amenity space and access
- Trees and biodiversity
- Planning obligation requirements
What decided it
The proposal fails to accord with the development plan on multiple grounds: incongruous design harming character and appearance, inadequate external amenity space and poor outlook for future residents, likely harm to neighbouring trees and biodiversity, and failure to secure necessary planning obligations.
