Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupants of 99 Antlers Hill, with particular regard to privacy and 101a Antlers Hill, with regard to privacy, outlook and light
- Whether the proposed development would make adequate provision for Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG)
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
What decided it
The unacceptable harm to the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, particularly the unobstructed privacy loss to 99 Antlers Hill and the privacy and outlook harm to 101a Antlers Hill, combined with the failure to provide mandatory Biodiversity Net Gain information, outweighed the modest housing delivery benefits.
