Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect the proposal would have on the special interest of the grade II listed Myrtle Cottage
  • The effect the proposal would have on the character and appearance of the Old Bursledon Conservation Area

What decided it

The extension's disproportionate scale relative to the modest listed building and its spacious garden setting would harm the special architectural and historic interest of the listed building and the character and appearance of the Conservation Area, with no public benefits to outweigh this heritage harm.
