Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effects of the extension on the character and appearance of the host property, a locally designated heritage asset and wider area
- Whether the appeal scheme should be the subject of an ecological appraisal and if so, the effects of the proposed development on wildlife interests
What decided it
The extension, through appropriate design and materials, does not harm the heritage significance of the non-designated heritage asset and enhances the character and appearance of the area, while the ecological concerns raised by the Council lack substantiated evidence and are disproportionate to the modest scale of the development.
