Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the Richmond Riverside Conservation Area

What decided it

The proposed box dormer would fail to conserve the character and appearance of the Richmond Riverside Conservation Area by disrupting the strong sense of uniformity afforded by the run of small-pitched dormers along the roofscape, and no public benefits were demonstrated to outweigh the less than substantial harm identified.

The less than substantial harm to the character and appearance of the Richmond Riverside Conservation Area was not outweighed by any demonstrated public benefits.
