Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Heritage considerations being (i) the effect of the proposals on the character and appearance of the host property and (ii) whether the development would serve to preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Westbury Conservation Area
- The effect on the living conditions of neighbouring residents with reference to noise, disturbance and privacy
What decided it
The proposed external steelwork (staircase and balcony) would cause material harm to the character and appearance of the non-designated heritage asset and the Westbury Conservation Area with no offsetting public benefits.
