- This site was an integral part of the Hardway Conservation Area;
- There were massive concerns regarding the removal of trees from the site, and the potential damage caused to the remaining trees;
- There would be a major impact of the immediate neighbours and as the development was partly at the front of the property to the whole street as well;
