Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Barratt Lane Conservation Area with particular regard to the setting of 21 Barratt Lane
- the effect of the development on the amenity value of trees
- the effect of the development on the living conditions of future occupiers of the proposed dwelling with regard to light
What decided it
The less than substantial harm to the conservation area and the setting of the key character building, combined with unacceptable effects on tree amenity and future occupiers' living conditions regarding light, outweighed the limited public benefits of housing supply.
The limited public benefits of housing supply and efficient use of urban land were outweighed by the great weight to be attached to conservation of heritage assets and the unacceptable effects on trees and living conditions.
