Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effects of the proposal on the character and appearance of the street scene and whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Wick Road Conservation Area
- The living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring residential properties, with particular regard to privacy and outlook
- Highway safety, with particular regard to on-street car parking
- Whether the statutory requirements in respect of Biodiversity Net Gain would be met
What decided it
The substantial harm to the character and appearance of the conservation area caused by the proposal's siting, size, layout and forecourt parking, combined with unacceptable highway safety impacts from exacerbated parking stress and failure to meet statutory Biodiversity Net Gain requirements, outweighed the modest housing supply benefit of one additional dwelling.
