Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the setting of the locally listed building at 107-109 Blackheath Road and whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Ashburnham Triangle Conservation Area
- Whether the proposal would provide suitable living conditions for future occupiers of Flat 1
- Whether sufficient information has been provided to demonstrate that adequate waste and recycling arrangements can be achieved
What decided it
The less than substantial harm to the Ashburnham Triangle Conservation Area and the setting of the locally listed building, combined with inadequate living conditions and impracticable waste arrangements, outweighed the limited public benefit of one additional dwelling.
The limited public benefit of providing one new dwelling was outweighed by the less than substantial harm to the conservation area and its heritage assets, which carries great weight.
