Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host dwelling, the surrounding area and whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Amyand Park Road Conservation Area
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of the neighbouring dwellings in relation to outlook
What decided it
The cumulative impact of the two roof extensions would harm the character and appearance of the Conservation Area and the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, with no public benefits to outweigh the less than substantial harm to the heritage asset.
The less than substantial harm to the character and appearance of the Amyand Park Road Conservation Area and harm to neighbouring living conditions were not outweighed by any public benefits, and the appellant's intention to optimise the site's potential did not justify the significant harm identified.
