Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed outbuilding upon the existing trees along The Fairway that are subject to a Tree Preservation Order (TPO), including the removal of T1
  • The effect of the proposed garage upon the character and appearance of the existing building and the surrounding locality

What decided it

The proposed garage is oversized and incongruous for its location, and the removal of the Sycamore Tree has not been adequately justified, both contrary to the local plan policies protecting character and trees.
