Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the development preserves or enhances the character or appearance of the Gosforth Conservation Area

What decided it

The development causes less than substantial but considerable harm to the significance of the Gosforth Conservation Area by breaking the visual harmony and architectural integrity of the building, and the private benefits claimed by the appellant do not outweigh the great weight that must be given to conservation of this designated heritage asset.
