Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the development preserves or enhances the character or appearance of the host dwelling, surrounding area and the West Putney Conservation Area
What decided it
The gates harm the character and appearance of the West Putney Conservation Area by introducing a solid, contemporary design in a darker colour that disrupts the uniform, open character of Colinette Road, and the private security benefits do not outweigh this less than substantial harm to the conservation area's significance.
The less than substantial harm to the significance of the West Putney Conservation Area was weighed against the private security benefits of the gates, which do not constitute public benefits and therefore do not outweigh the identified harm.
