- The effect of the proposed extensions on the character and appearance of the host dwelling, the Gerrards Cross Centenary Conservation Area and the non-designated heritage asset at 12 Fulmer Way
What decided it
The less than substantial but considerable harm to the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the Gerrards Cross Centenary Conservation Area, with no demonstrable public benefits to outweigh it, led to dismissal of the appeal.
The less than substantial but considerable harm to the conservation area was weighed against the public benefits of the proposals; no public benefits were demonstrated and local support did not overcome the planning objections, resulting in dismissal
