- The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the local area, bearing in mind the special attention that should be paid to the desirability of preserving the setting of the nearby Grade II listed building, and the extent to which it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Conservation Area
What decided it
The canopies fail to preserve the special historic interest of the Grade II listed building and the character or appearance of the conservation area, contrary to the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 and development plan policies, with no public benefits to outweigh the less than substantial harm.

- Development plan policies
- SWDP6SWDP21SWDP24MD1MD2

- Paragraph 199Paragraph 200Paragraph 202
