Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, including whether the proposed development would conserve and enhance landscape and scenic beauty in the High Weald National Landscape
- the living conditions of the occupants of neighbouring properties, with regard to privacy and outlook
- highway safety, with regard to the safety of highway users (refuse)
- ecology
What decided it
The significant weight attributed to the harmful effect on character and appearance and conflict with development plan policies, which significantly and demonstrably outweighed the limited benefits of housing supply from two dwellings.
