Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area, in particular the streetscene
  • the effect of the proposed development on a protected species

What decided it

The absence of an emergence survey to confirm or rule out bat activity meant the Inspector could not be satisfied that the development would not cause unacceptable harm to a protected species, which outweighed the acceptable character and appearance impacts.

Plan policies cited: Policy QP3 of the Borough Local Plan 2013-2033, Policy NP/DG2 of the Ascot, Sunninghill and Sunningdale Neighbourhood Plan, LP Policy NR2
