What decided it
The proposal can be accommodated without detracting from the significance of the conservation area when attaching great weight to the asset's conservation and having regard to the statutory duty under the Town and Country Planning Act.
The benefits of the extension to the property were balanced against the conservation area duty, with the Inspector concluding that the proposal would preserve the character and appearance of the conservation area and accord with the development plan.
