Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area and conservation area
  • bats

What decided it

The proposed extension would not harm the character and appearance of the conservation area as it would read as a subservient, well-designed addition that would not be particularly visible from public views and would preserve the heritage asset's significance.
