Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the new entrance doorway to the proposed first floor flats on the character and appearance of the host property, the parade of shops in which it forms a part of and the area
What decided it
The modest scale, form and design of the proposed glazed doorway, together with matching materials and fenestrations, would achieve appropriate subordination to the host property and parade of shops, limiting significant adverse impacts on the street scene.
