Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on highway safety, with regard to the provision of parking
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, including whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Frittenden Conservation Area
What decided it
The provision of 4 additional on-site parking spaces meeting the parking standards for the proposed increase in bed capacity, combined with the limited visual impact of extensions largely to the rear and retention of the hedgerow frontage, meant the proposal would not harm highway safety or the conservation area character.
