Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Cotham and Redland Conservation Area
- the effect of the development on the living conditions of neighbouring residents with regards to noise, overlooking and enclosure
- the effect of the development on the living conditions of the future occupiers of the proposed dwelling and occupiers of the existing dwelling with regards to the provision of waste storage and cycle storage
What decided it
The less than substantial harm to the significance of the designated Cotham and Redland Conservation Area, to which great weight must be given under NPPF paragraph 212, outweighed the modest public benefits of providing a single dwelling despite the Council's housing land supply shortfall.
the less than substantial harm to the conservation area, to which great weight must be given, outweighed the very modest public benefits of providing a single dwelling, and the heritage asset protection policies in the Framework provided a strong reason for refusal notwithstanding the housing land supply shortfall
