Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effects of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- whether the development would provide an adequate quantity and quality of private garden space
What decided it
The proposed development would enhance the character and appearance of the area and provide adequate private garden space, thereby according with the development plan, while delivering material benefits in housing provision, land efficiency and highway safety.
The benefits of ending the stalemate on the undeveloped site, housing provision, efficient use of land and highway safety outweighed the minor adverse impact of the lack of an active frontage to Norwich Road.
