Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect on the character and appearance of the area
  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of existing neighbouring occupiers with regards to outlook and light

What decided it

The proposal fails to comply with national decision-making policy DP3 of the Framework by not responding to its context and integrating with its surroundings, triggering the refusal ground in policy S4(2)(c), and the limited benefits do not outweigh the adverse effects.

The limited benefits of approving the proposed development would be substantially outweighed by adverse effects, and the presumption in favour of sustainable development does not apply
