Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Rowlands Castle Conservation Area

What decided it

The gable conversion would fundamentally alter the symmetry and balance of the roofscape that contributes positively to the character and appearance of the Conservation Area, and the very limited public benefit does not outweigh this harm when great weight is given to conservation.

The less than substantial harm to the character and appearance of the Conservation Area outweighed the very limited public benefit of modest improvement to the housing stock
