Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character of the area and whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Meads Conservation Area
- The living conditions of existing adjoining occupiers and future occupiers of the proposed dwelling
What decided it
The adverse impact of the proposed development on the character of the area and upon living conditions attracts substantial weight and significantly and demonstrably outweighs the benefits of housing supply when assessed against the Framework as a whole.
The benefits of housing supply and economic benefits during construction were outweighed by the substantial harm to character and living conditions, such that the presumption in favour of sustainable development did not apply.
