Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The proposed garage would introduce a built feature into the open garden frontage of the Conservation Area, detracting from its distinctive green, open and spacious character without any demonstrable public benefits to justify the harm.
