Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
  • The living conditions of occupiers of 18 and 20 Mickleborough Avenue, with particular regard to outlook

What decided it

The carport's dominant scale, substantial forward projection, and discordant design caused serious harmful effects on both the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers that could not be justified by the modest benefits claimed.
