Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host and neighbouring dwellings and whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Duncan Terrace/Colebrooke Row Fields Conservation Area
What decided it
The proposed extension would not preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Conservation Area, and the private benefit of additional living accommodation does not outweigh the less than substantial harm caused.
The less than substantial harm to the Conservation Area was weighed against the public benefits of the proposal, but the additional living accommodation was not a public benefit sufficient to outweigh the harm.
