Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the extension on the character and appearance of the Woodgrange Conservation Area
The effect of the extension on the living conditions of neighbouring occupants by virtue of outlook and light

What decided it

The extension causes less than substantial harm to the significance of the Woodgrange Conservation Area heritage asset and material harm to neighbouring outlook, with no public benefits to outweigh this harm, and the alternative scheme cannot address the overbearing impact on the adjoining property.
