Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the dwelling and the Lee Manor Conservation Area
What decided it
The removal of the chimney stack would result in less than substantial harm to the designated heritage asset (the conservation area) that is not outweighed by public benefits, whereas the lightwell would be sufficiently screened and would preserve the character and appearance of the conservation area.
