Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Old Oak and Wormholt Conservation Area
  • the effect of the proposed development upon highway and pedestrian safety

What decided it

The proposed extension would appear incongruous and prominent due to its corner location and lack of subservience, upsetting the symmetry of the conservation area, and the modest benefits of construction employment could not outweigh this harm to the conservation area's appearance.
