Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effects of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- The effects of the proposed development on the living conditions of occupiers within 1-8 Oxford Place and Arran Court
- Whether adequate living conditions would be provided for the occupiers of the proposed development with specific regard to floor to ceiling heights
- Whether the proposed development would achieve sufficient biodiversity net gains
What decided it
The unacceptably harmful effects on the character and appearance of the area combined with significant harm to the living conditions of adjacent occupiers, which conflicts with the development plan and cannot be outweighed by the modest housing contribution.
