Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the Hanger Hill (Haymills) Conservation Area
What decided it
The significant cumulative scale and design of the extensions, particularly the side extension projecting to the boundary and the loss of distinctive original features including chimney stacks, would cause less than substantial harm to the conservation area with no public benefits to outweigh it.
Less than substantial harm to the significance of the conservation area was not outweighed by any public benefits of the development.
