Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the unauthorised development preserves or enhances the character or appearance of the St Anne's Church Conservation Area
What decided it
The poor quality materials and design of the extension cause less than substantial harm to the conservation area which is not outweighed by the appellant's stated benefits of addressing anti-social behaviour, and the development fails to preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the conservation area as required by law.
The less than substantial harm to the significance of the conservation area was weighed against the public benefits of addressing anti-social behaviour, and the harm was found to outweigh the benefits.
