Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • the settings and significance of the West Cliff and Poole Hill Conservation Area and the Grade II listed building, 1-9 Upper Terrace Road

What decided it

The harm to the character and appearance of the area and the less than substantial but cumulatively substantial harm to the significance of the listed building and conservation area outweighs the limited public benefits of providing one additional dwelling in a location with constrained housing supply.

The moderate weight given to the benefits of housing delivery and the sustainable location did not outweigh the great weight given to the conflict with development plan policies protecting heritage assets and character, and the heritage harms identified.
