Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area, including the appeal property
  • the living conditions of occupiers of 4 Rookery Lane, in terms of outlook, light and privacy
  • highway safety

What decided it

The proposal would be harmful to the character and appearance of the surrounding area, would adversely affect the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers in terms of outlook and light, and would create highway safety risks, with no material considerations outweighing the conflict with the development plan.
