Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- the living conditions of the occupants of 36 Gorsecliffe Road, having regard to outlook and daylight
What decided it
The significant harmful effect on the character and appearance of the area, arising from the contemporary design being discordant with the traditional suburban context and the disruption of the linear plot pattern, outweighed the benefits of housing delivery and the fallback position.
The adverse impacts with regard to harm to character significantly and demonstrably outweighed the limited benefits identified, when assessed against the policies in the Framework taken as a whole.
Framework references: 11
Plan policies cited: Policy CS21, Policy CS41, Policy 6.8
