- Inspector
- Scott A
Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether or not the proposals would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Lakes Estate Conservation Area
- The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the future occupants with regards to outlook, internal light levels and provision of external space (Appeal A) and outlook only (Appeal B)
What decided it
The proposed development would appear as an incongruous and visually discordant feature detrimental to the character and appearance of the conservation area, and would provide unacceptable living conditions for future occupants, with the limited public benefit of one additional dwelling insufficient to outweigh the heritage harm.
