Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the King Edwards Grove Conservation Area
What decided it
The substantial mass and bulk of the proposed roof extensions would unbalance the host dwelling and create a visually discordant appearance that would harm the character and appearance of the Conservation Area, and the limited public benefits would not outweigh this identified harm.
The less than substantial harm to the Conservation Area was weighed against the limited public benefits of the proposal (employment during construction and improved internal light and space), and the harm outweighed the benefits.
