Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

whether the proposal would adversely affect the supply of family sized homes and be in a suitable location for the proposed development
the effect of the proposal upon the character and appearance of the area and highway safety, with particular regard to proposed arrangements for car and cycle parking, and the storage and collection of refuse and recycling

What decided it

The proposal fails to demonstrate acceptable arrangements for cycle parking and waste storage, and fails to show that character and appearance would not be unacceptably harmed, with these policy conflicts outweighing the moderate benefits of additional housing supply.
