Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupants of 20 St Mary's Terrace with regard to outlook, and the occupants of 22 and 24 St Mary's Terrace with regard to access to private outdoor space
- whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Royal Leamington Spa Conservation Area
What decided it
The unacceptable harm to the living conditions of neighbouring occupants combined with the failure to preserve or enhance the Conservation Area's character, with the modest public benefits being insufficient to outweigh the identified harms.
