Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers
  • Whether the development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Wellesley Road Conservation Area

What decided it

The proposal would fail to provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers and would cause less than substantial harm to the conservation area with no public benefits to outweigh that harm.

The limited housing benefit afforded to a one-person dwelling did not outweigh the significant adverse effect on living conditions for future occupiers and the less than substantial harm to the conservation area character and appearance.

Framework references: 202
