Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area, in particular the effect on Upwood Conservation Area and the setting of nearby listed buildings

What decided it

The subordinate design of the extensions, their integration with the existing pair of semi-detached houses, and the generous plot size meant the proposal would preserve the character and appearance of the conservation area and the setting of nearby listed buildings.

In the absence of any harm to heritage assets, the public benefits of the proposal did not need to be considered; the proposal complied with development plan policies requiring positive contribution to context and protection of heritage assets.
