Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the host property as a non-designated heritage asset and whether the character or appearance of the Bestwood Village Conservation Area would be preserved or enhanced

What decided it

The proposed removal of significant architectural features and their replacement with incongruous design elements would harm the character and appearance of both the non-designated heritage asset and the conservation area, and the modest private benefits of the scheme are insufficient to outweigh the great weight attached to this heritage harm.
