Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
- The effect of the proposed development on pedestrian/highway safety
What decided it
The proposed development would unacceptably harm both the character and appearance of the surrounding area and pedestrian/highway safety in a location of high footfall and close to a busy signalised crossing, with no material considerations sufficient to outweigh this identified harm.
