Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the building, the Sandgate High Street Conservation Area and the setting of the Listed Building at 26-30A High Street
What decided it
The prevalence of similar replacement materials in the vicinity of the appeal site, combined with the unfussy appearance of the proposed materials and their compatibility with the existing character of the conservation area, led the Inspector to conclude that no material harm would result to the heritage assets.
