Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Castor Conservation Area (1969)
  • Whether the proposal would preserve the setting of the listed buildings in the vicinity, particularly No.12 Allotment Lane, the Cabin and Manor House Farm

What decided it

The Gazebo's asymmetrical pitched roof creates discordant roof lines that cause less than substantial harm to the conservation area which is not outweighed by the public benefit of rendering the extension wall.
