Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the architectural integrity of the host property
- the setting of Forge House and Oak Cottage listed grade II
- whether the development would serve to preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Poynings Conservation Area
What decided it
The extended run of pitched fascia in the proposed design would result in an inelegant and unattractive solution that would increase the detrimental impact on the architectural integrity of the host property and harm the conservation area and listed building settings, contrary to Sections 66 and 72 of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990.
