Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area, bearing in mind the special attention that should be paid to the desirability of preserving the setting of the listed building, and the extent to which it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the conservation area
  • neighbouring amenity

What decided it

The essential public benefit of enabling the medical centre to continue operating effectively for the community outweighs the less than substantial harm to the conservation area over the temporary two-year consent period.

Framework references: 205, 206, 208, 56
