Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host property and the area
  • The effect of the proposed development on an Oak tree that is protected by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO)

What decided it

The proposed development would be harmful to the character and appearance of the host property and area through unsympathetic design, and would create significant potential for harm to a protected oak tree without adequate safeguards.

Plan policies cited: Policy DM9 of the Core Strategy and Development Management Policies Document, Principles 10.1, 10.3 and 10.5 of the Residential Design Guide Supplementary Planning Document, PO3 of the Western Urban Area Character SPD
