Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed development would serve to preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Farnborough Hill Conservation Area

What decided it

The unique design and setting of the property within the street scene, combined with the set-back position and diminutive scale of the extensions relative to the host property, meant the proposed development would not cause material harm to the conservation area's character and appearance.
