Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the proposed development on the significance of Stray View as a non-designated heritage asset and whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Harrogate Conservation Area
The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of occupants of neighbouring properties, with regard to privacy, outlook and noise and disturbance

What decided it

The proposal conflicts with the development plan on two independent grounds—harm to the heritage significance of Stray View and the conservation area, and material harm to neighbouring residential amenity—with no material considerations to outweigh these conflicts.
