Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

What decided it

The development would give rise to unacceptable disturbance to immediate residential occupiers through comings and goings and circulation within the property, particularly given the close relationship between the appeal site and surrounding residential properties and the positioning of internal circulation spaces adjacent to the neighbouring property.
