Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of existing property and the Goldhanger Conservation Area
  • The living conditions of the occupiers of No. 26 Fish Street

What decided it

The first floor rear extension's discordant massing and design would harm the Conservation Area's character and the extension would be overbearing to neighbours, whereas the modest infill front extension with matching materials would preserve the Conservation Area and cause no neighbour harm.
