Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Durham Road Conservation Area
- Whether the proposed development would provide adequate living conditions for future occupants, with particular reference to internal space, outdoor amenity space, and sun and daylight
- Whether the proposed development would provide an adequate housing mix
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupants of 41 and 43 Manor Park Road with particular reference to outlook, and day and sunlight
What decided it
The significant less than substantial harm to the conservation area's significance was not outweighed by the limited public benefits of delivering three small homes, as the Framework requires great weight to be given to conservation of designated heritage assets.
