Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the Brunswick Conservation Area
What decided it
The less than substantial harm to the conservation area's character and appearance, arising from the loss of distinctive traditional door and glazing features and the extensive hard-surfacing of the front garden, was not outweighed by the limited public benefits of the proposal.
The less than substantial harm to the conservation area was weighed against the moderate benefit of additional parking convenience and minimal benefit of heat retention; the harm outweighed the benefits.
