Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host property and the area, having particular regard to its location within the Kenilworth Road Conservation Area
What decided it
The proposed extensions and roof alteration, by virtue of their scale, siting and design, would fail to achieve appropriate subordination to the host property and would cause unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the Kenilworth Road Conservation Area that cannot be justified by the private benefits to the appellant.
