Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The impact of the proposed front boundary treatment upon the character and appearance of the host property, Conservation Area and sense of safety in the public realm
What decided it
The proposed front boundary treatment, comprising sliding metal gates and railings on top of a brick wall across the entire frontage, would be out of character with the prevailing low walls and hedgerows characteristic of the Conservation Area and would result in less than substantial harm to its character and appearance with no public benefits to justify this harm.
