Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
  • the effect of the development on highway safety, with specific regard to parking provision

What decided it

The development conflicts with the development plan as a whole by causing demonstrable harm to both character and appearance and highway safety through loss of a required parking space, with no material considerations of sufficient weight to indicate a decision otherwise than in accordance with the development plan.
