Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the conservation area, and what impact, if any, it would have on the setting of nearby heritage assets
  • the effect of the proposed development on parking provision, highway safety and congestion
  • whether the proposed development would make acceptable provision for cycle storage

What decided it

The proposed dormer windows would cause less than substantial harm to the character and appearance of the conservation area and the setting of listed buildings, which was not outweighed by the limited public benefits of a single additional residential unit.
