Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, including the West Wickham Conservation Area
- the effect of the proposed development on living conditions, with particular regard to outlook from the garden of 9 High Street
- whether or not there is a reasonable likelihood of protected species being present and affected by the development
What decided it
The harm to the character and appearance of the Conservation Area and the failure to demonstrate that protected species would be safeguarded, combined with harm to neighbouring living conditions, were not outweighed by the limited public benefits of providing one additional dwelling.
