Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the development on housing choice
  • whether the development provides suitable living conditions for occupiers with particular reference to external space and outlook
  • the effect of the development on on-street parking and the highways network
  • whether the development makes satisfactory provision for cycle parking

What decided it

The development conflicts with the development plan on multiple grounds—loss of a three-bedroom home, inadequate external space and outlook for one flat, unresolved parking permit eligibility, and lack of cycle storage provision—and material considerations do not justify departure from the plan.
