Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • the living conditions of the occupants of No 79 Cheddleton Park Avenue, with particular regard to privacy

What decided it

The significant harm to character and appearance and the unacceptable loss of privacy to neighbouring occupants significantly and demonstrably outweighed the moderate benefits of providing a single new dwelling within a context of housing shortfall.

The moderate weight given to housing supply and associated social and economic benefits was significantly and demonstrably outweighed by the significant harm to character and appearance and living conditions, applying the tilted balance under paragraph 11(d) of the Framework.

Framework references: 11

Plan policies cited: Policy H1, Policy DC1, Policy DC3
