Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect of the development on the living conditions of the occupiers of the neighbouring property

What decided it

The proposal fails to comply with Policy DP3 of the Framework by not responding to its context so as to integrate with and enhance its surroundings, and causes unacceptable harm to both the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers.

The limited economic benefits of extending and refurbishing the property were substantially outweighed by the adverse effects to the character and appearance of the area and harm to neighbouring living conditions, such that the proposal does not amount to sustainable development or effective use of land.
