Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development upon the character and appearance of the surrounding area and the setting of the grade II listed Moorwell Place (Nos 1-23)
What decided it
The wooden fence and garage would cause harm to the character and appearance of the surrounding area and fail to preserve the setting of the grade II listed building, whereas the pergola's modest, discrete and open construction would preserve the setting and accord with design policies.
