Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed development and works would preserve the Grade II listed building or its setting or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses, and preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the conservation area
  • The effect of the proposed single storey extension on the living conditions of the occupiers of Morley Cottage with particular regard to light and outlook

What decided it

The proposed extensions would cause less than substantial harm to the designated heritage assets and neighbouring living conditions, and the public benefits were insufficient to outweigh this harm when weighed against the statutory duty to preserve listed buildings and conservation areas.
