Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host building, with due regard to the Riccall Conservation Area

What decided it

The proposed dormer windows would lead to significant harm to the character and appearance of the host building and would fail to preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the conservation area, with no public benefits to outweigh that harm.

The less-than-substantial harm to the conservation area was not outweighed by any public benefits arising from the proposal
