Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed external wall insulation on the character and appearance of the host dwelling, the street scene and the Boot and Shoe Quarter Conservation Area
What decided it
The proposed front elevation external wall insulation would materially harm the character and appearance of the conservation area by projecting from the original façade and obscuring distinctive architectural features, and this harm could not be justified by the modest private and public benefits offered.
