Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the appeal site and its setting in the Gidea Park Conservation area
What decided it
The size, scale and siting of the proposed building would detract from the spaciousness of the garden and fail to preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Gidea Park Conservation Area, with no public benefits to outweigh the less than substantial harm.
Less than substantial harm to the significance of the conservation area was not outweighed by any public benefits of the proposal.
