Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Farnley Tyas Conservation Area
- whether the proposal would provide acceptable living conditions for the occupiers of Beech Barn, 2 Deer Croft by reason of outdoor amenity space
- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of 1 Deer Croft by reason of outlook and light
What decided it
The awkward design of the rear extension, particularly the prominent chimney, fails to respect the traditional form of the original house and would harm the character and appearance of the Conservation Area, combined with unacceptable impacts on living conditions of both the existing and neighbouring occupiers.
