Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character of the area, having regard to locally listed buildings
- The living conditions of the occupants of 14 Redwick Road, having regard to outlook
What decided it
The proposal would lead to unsatisfactory living conditions for occupants of the neighbouring property through overbearing outlook effects, which the Framework requires to be refused as poorly designed development that fails to provide a high standard of amenity.
The significant benefits of housing delivery and small social and economic benefits were outweighed by the significant and demonstrable harm to the living conditions of neighbouring occupants regarding outlook, notwithstanding that the harm to character was itself outweighed by housing benefits.
