Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, including the Poets Corner Conservation Area
- the living conditions of occupiers of the host property at Avon Villa, with particular regard to outlook and light
What decided it
The proposed development would cause less than substantial harm to the conservation area with no public benefits to outweigh it, and would result in an unacceptable effect on the living conditions of occupiers with regard to outlook.
The less than substantial harm to the character and appearance of the conservation area was weighed against the scheme's public benefits, of which there were none identified; the balance tipped decisively against the proposal.
