Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed alterations and additions on the character and appearance of the host dwelling; the Sandycoombe Road street scene, and the Cambridge Park Conservation Area

What decided it

The proposed roof alterations would cause less than substantial harm to the significance of the conservation area and the setting of the listed building, and the minor economic benefits do not outweigh this harm.

Framework references: 208
