Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Wilbraham Road/Edge Lane Conservation Area
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of occupiers of 655 Wilbraham Road, with particular regard to outlook and loss of privacy
What decided it
The proposed development would cause less than substantial but considerable harm to the character and appearance of the designated conservation area, which could not be outweighed by the modest public benefits of providing one new dwelling and local economic activity.
