Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- whether the site is a suitable location for the proposed dwelling having regard to the spatial strategy in the development plan
- whether or not the proposal appropriately addresses matters of land contamination
- whether or not the proposed development would make satisfactory provision for vehicle parking, turning and cycle parking
What decided it
The proposal conflicts with the spatial strategy of the development plan and would cause unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the area, which conflicts outweigh the modest benefits of providing one additional dwelling.
