Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the Keston Village Conservation Area
What decided it
The installed door design, unlike the faux-Georgian design originally proposed, closely replicates the proportions of the original shopfront and thus preserves the character and appearance of the Keston Village Conservation Area.
