Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- effect of the proposed development on highway and public safety
- effect on the activities/operations of neighbouring businesses
- effect on the character and appearance of the host building and area, and whether it would preserve or enhance the setting of the Stanley Dock Conservation Area and of listed buildings
- provision of a suitable and inclusive access
What decided it
The cumulative effect of unacceptable impacts on highway and public safety, neighbouring business operations, character and heritage setting, and failure to provide inclusive access, combined with insufficient weight given to economic benefits, led to dismissal.
