Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the appeal site and the surrounding area
  • Whether the proposed development makes adequate provision for Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG)
  • Whether the proposal makes adequate provision for car parking

What decided it

The proposal's harmful effect on character and appearance through its bulky form at the junction, combined with failure to provide mandatory Biodiversity Net Gain information as a statutory requirement, outweighed the negligible housing contribution.
