Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the extent to which the two external extractor flues would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Little Horton Conservation Area
- the effect on the living conditions of the occupants of neighbouring residential properties with particular reference to noise
What decided it
The external extractor flues constitute visually incongruous and unsightly commercial additions that are wholly discordant with the historic surroundings of the Little Horton Conservation Area and fail to preserve or enhance its character and appearance, with any noise mitigation measures creating further visual harm.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- DS1DS3EN3SC9DS5EN8
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
