Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, particularly with regard to height
- Whether the transport impacts of the development would be acceptable, with regard to cycle storage provision and the proposed crossover
- Whether adequate waste-storage facilities would be provided on site
What decided it
The substantial harm to the character and appearance of the area arising primarily from the height and massing of the proposed development, which would remove a beneficial visual break and create an incongruous form within the context of the surrounding three-storey terraces.
