Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the appeal building and the Stoke by Nayland Conservation Area
- the setting of listed buildings in the vicinity
What decided it
The design, scale and adverse visual impact of the proposed dormer window would cause less than substantial harm to the character and appearance of the conservation area and the setting of listed buildings, which would not be outweighed by the private benefits of the proposal.
The less than substantial harm to the conservation area and setting of listed buildings was not outweighed by the private benefit of improved upper floor sleeping accommodation for visitors.
