Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effects of the proposal on the character of the host property, surrounding area and whether or not it would preserve the setting of the adjoining Maidencombe Conservation Area
What decided it
The proposal would preserve the setting of the Maidencombe Conservation Area and comply with the development plan policies requiring good quality design that respects local character and heritage assets.
No balancing exercise was undertaken; the proposal was found to comply with the development plan and therefore the appeal was allowed.
Plan policies cited: Policy TH12 of the Torquay Neighbourhood Plan (2019), Policy TH8 of the Torquay Neighbourhood Plan (2019), Policy DE1 of the Torbay Local Plan (2015), Policy DE3 of the Torbay Local Plan (2015), Policy SS8 of the Torbay Local Plan (2015)
