Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the De Beauvoir Conservation Area
What decided it
The proposed extension's excessive depth and the incongruous roof terrace with privacy screens would harm the appearance of the Conservation Area and be contrary to development plan policies, with no public benefits sufficient to justify this harm.
