Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The permanent loss of the grass verge and introduction of vehicle parking to the front elevation would materially erode the soft landscaped and verdant character of the street scene, and this harm was not outweighed by the parking and accessibility benefits.

the benefits of approving the vehicular access, including convenient parking, EV charging, disabled access and pedestrian safety improvements, were substantially outweighed by the adverse effect on the character and appearance of the area
