Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the existing dwelling and the surrounding area
What decided it
The harmful effect on the character and appearance of the existing dwelling and surrounding area, which would not be outweighed by the modest housing benefits in the absence of a demonstrated five-year housing land supply.
The benefits of housing delivery and responding to changing household needs were afforded moderate weight, but were outweighed by the significant harm to character and appearance, such that the adverse effects would not significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits when assessed against the development plan and Framework as a whole.
