Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the principle of the proposed development on garden land is acceptable
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host property, the terrace, and the area, with particular regard to its design and scale
- Surface water run-off and flood risk
- Whether the proposed development would provide satisfactory living conditions for future occupiers, with particular regard to the layout and outlook of the ground floor flats, and the outdoor space provision
What decided it
The proposed development would constitute unacceptable development on garden land contrary to Core Strategy Policy CS1 and supplementary planning guidance, and would cause harmful effects on the character and appearance of the host property and terrace that could not be outweighed by housing supply or other benefits.
