Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the extension on the character and appearance of the host building and area, having particular regard to whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Roundham and Paignton Harbour Conservation Area

What decided it

The limited public benefits of improved accommodation and living conditions do not outweigh the less than substantial harm to the significance of the conservation area, to which great weight must be attributed.

The less than substantial harm to the conservation area and its significance, to which great weight must be given, outweighed the minor public benefits of improved accommodation and economic benefits from construction.

Framework references: 202
