Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the appeal site and the surrounding Watling Estate Conservation Area
What decided it
The proposed development would cause less than substantial harm to the significance of the Watling Estate Conservation Area through its height and form, eroding the important space between properties and detracting from the distinctive character of the area, with insufficient public benefit to outweigh this harm.
The private benefit of additional accommodation to the occupiers was outweighed by the less than substantial harm to the significance of the Watling Estate Conservation Area and the statutory duty to preserve or enhance its character and appearance.
