What decided it

The considerable harm to the character, quality and setting of the locally listed Papermakers Arms building from the increased scale and massing of the proposal significantly and demonstrably outweighed the very limited benefits of three additional HMO rooms.

The adverse impacts of the proposal on the locally listed building significantly and demonstrably outweighed the very limited benefits of three additional HMO rooms, applying the tilted balance under paragraph 11(d)(ii) of the Framework.
