Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • whether the proposal would provide satisfactory levels of parking
  • the effect of the proposal on trees of amenity value

What decided it

The proposal would harmfully reduce the open, verdant character of the area through its incongruous siting and appearance, and would fail to provide satisfactory parking levels without enforceable car-free mechanisms, conflicting with the development plan.
