Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of Ralph Court and the surrounding area, and on the settings of heritage assets
- If any harm is caused in respect of issue (i), whether such harm is outweighed by other considerations, including the personal and health circumstances of the proposed future occupier of the annexe
What decided it
The permanent harm to the character and appearance of Ralph Court as a non-designated heritage asset, combined with the incongruous contemporary design competing with rather than complementing the Victorian rectory, outweighed the moderate weight given to the personal and medical circumstances of the proposed occupier.
