Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed development would include an adequate replacement for a protected tree which previously stood on the site

What decided it

The positive aspects of the proposed development, including new housing provision in a sustainable location and improvement of the site's appearance, outweighed the negative factor of reduced public amenity value from the replacement tree's less prominent siting.
