Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether or not the development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the site, the surrounding area and the St Andrews Conservation Area
- the effect of the development on flooding
What decided it
The replacement windows' bulky UPVC frames and loss of historic lead detailing caused less than substantial harm to the conservation area with no offsetting public benefit, whereas the porch and hard surfacing preserved character and appearance and complied with development plan policies.
