What decided it
The substantial harm to the character and appearance of the area and the unacceptable harm to the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through overbearing outlook significantly and demonstrably outweighed the benefits of housing delivery and affordable housing contribution.
The substantial adverse impacts on character and appearance and neighbouring living conditions significantly and demonstrably outweighed the benefits of housing supply, affordable housing contribution, sustainable location and brownfield reuse, despite the Council's inability to demonstrate five-year housing land supply.
