Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, with particular regard to the preservation or enhancement of the Duncan Terrace/Colebrooke Row Conservation Area and the locally listed terrace of St Peter's Street
  • the living conditions of the occupants of neighbouring properties, in relation to privacy for Numbers 79, 81, and 83 St. Peter's Street, and outlook for Numbers 81 and 83 St. Peter's Street

What decided it

The proposal would cause less than substantial harm to the significance of the designated heritage asset (the Conservation Area and locally listed building) with no public benefits presented to justify this harm, and would also cause unacceptable harm to neighbouring living conditions through privacy loss and overbearing impact.
