Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- The effect of the proposed development on highway safety, with particular reference to parking
- The effect of the proposed development on local biodiversity, including protected species
- Whether the proposed development would sufficiently preserve protected trees, with reference to their future health and vitality
What decided it
The unacceptable impact on highway safety arising from insufficient parking provision and the failure to adequately assess potential harm to protected species and biodiversity were the decisive factors that led to dismissal.
