Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host building and its surroundings

What decided it

The finished building would not be unduly bulky nor unattractive in the streetscene, and the benefit of improving residential accommodation outweighed the design criticisms, particularly given the sustainable location within an established urban area.

The benefit of improving residential accommodation at the appeal site outweighed the design criticisms that had been made.
