Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Aberford Conservation Area, with particular regard to the effect of the proposed development upon tree T1
- Whether the proposed development would achieve biodiversity net gain
What decided it
The appellant's technical solution for minimising the effect on tree T1, combined with clear justification for the proposed location and the absence of suitable alternative locations, demonstrated that the extension could be designed and constructed to preserve the character and appearance of the conservation area.
