Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effects of the development upon the character and appearance of the appeal property and the surrounding area
  • The movement of pedestrians

What decided it

The combination of harm to the conservation area's character and appearance through poorly designed structures creating clutter, and the unacceptable impediment to pedestrian movement at a constrained location, with no public benefits to justify the harm.
