Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

- Whether the proposal would provide adequate living conditions for future occupiers, with particular regard to its access, private amenity space provision and natural light
- Whether the proposal would provide adequate cycle and bin storage
What decided it
The proposal would conflict with the development plan by causing harmful effects on character and appearance, neighbouring living conditions, and future occupier amenity, with no material considerations to justify determination otherwise.
