Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would serve to preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Conservation Area
- The effect of the development on the living conditions of the residents of 3 Clyde Park with particular reference to privacy and visual impact
What decided it
The proposal would cause material harm to the character and appearance of the Conservation Area through town-cramming and would unacceptably harm the living conditions of neighbouring residents through loss of privacy and visual impact, with the minor public benefits insufficient to outweigh these harms.
