Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the property, the Liverpool Grove Conservation Area and the setting of the Grade I listed building at St Peter's Church
What decided it
The cumulative effect of the conservatory, greenhouse and brick wall would cause less than substantial but material harm to the character and appearance of the conservation area and the setting of the Grade I listed building, which is not outweighed by the public benefits of the scheme.
The less than substantial harm to the conservation area and the setting of the Grade I listed building was not outweighed by the public benefits of recreating the formal setting of the church.
