Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the character and appearance of the area including the Clyde Conservation Area (CA)
  • living conditions of occupants with reference to adequacy of size, floorspace and layout
  • living conditions of neighbouring occupiers with respect to any overlooking and loss of privacy

What decided it

The serious, less than substantial harm to the Clyde Circus Conservation Area and the failure of the flats to meet minimum internal space standards were not outweighed by the housing and socio-economic benefits of the development.

the harm to the conservation area and the sub-standard living conditions created were not outweighed by the small housing contribution and socio-economic benefits, so the balance tipped against the unauthorised development (except the single-storey extension already permitted separately)
