Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would provide satisfactory living conditions for future occupiers, with particular regard to the provision of and access to private garden space; outlook; daylight; and noise and disturbance
  • Whether the proposal would make satisfactory cycle storage provisions
  • The effect of the appeal proposal on highway safety, with specific regard to parking stress

What decided it

The proposal would fail to provide satisfactory living conditions for future occupiers due to inadequate private garden space provision and poor internal conditions with restricted daylight and outlook, combined with inadequate cycle storage provision.
