Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether or not the proposed rear dormer and rear roof terrace would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Whitehall Park Conservation Area
What decided it
The less than substantial harm to the significance of the Whitehall Park Conservation Area caused by the proposed rear dormer would not be outweighed by the modest public benefits of the scheme.
The less than substantial harm to the heritage significance of the conservation area outweighed the scheme's benefits of housing improvement, which attracted limited weight as no new housing unit was being created.
