Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of Lansbury Conservation Area
What decided it
The less than substantial harm to the significance of the Lansbury Conservation Area caused by the dormer's size and dominance, combined with the absence of sufficient public benefits to outweigh this harm, led to dismissal.
The less than substantial harm to the significance of the Conservation Area was not outweighed by the limited personal benefit of increased living space to the appellant.
