Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the Southgate Green Conservation Area
What decided it
The proposed change to the roof form from a gabled catslide design to a hipped roof would result in the loss of the 1950s design of the dwelling, causing less than substantial harm to the conservation area with no public benefits to justify it.
