Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect varying the condition has on the character and appearance of the area, including whether it preserves or enhances the Devisdale Conservation Area
What decided it
The walkway, being narrow, well-screened by vegetation and not a prominent feature from public viewpoints or neighbouring properties, does not cause harm to the character and appearance of the conservation area and therefore does not justify refusal of the application.
