®Planning appeal decision
27 Main Street, Keyworth, Nottingham, NG12 5AA
Planning appeal 3335679 at 27 Main Street, Keyworth, Nottingham, NG12 5AA (Rushcliffe Borough Council) was allowed in part (a split decision) on 21 March 2024 by Inspector Somers J, by written representations. The main issue, as the Inspector framed it: Whether the change in roof form and height of the carport; the increase in height of the Garage, and the erection of an external staircase, doorway at first floor level with 1.8m screening would preserve the setting of the listed buildings and the effect upon the character and appearance of the greater locality, with special attention given to the Keyworth Conservation Area.

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the change in roof form and height of the carport; the increase in height of the Garage, and the erection of an external staircase, doorway at first floor level with 1.8m screening would preserve the setting of the listed buildings and the effect upon the character and appearance of the greater locality, with special attention given to the Keyworth Conservation Area
- Whether the proposal would affect living conditions of No.31A Main Street, with particular consideration to sense of enclosure and privacy
What decided it
The external staircase and associated screening would fail to preserve the setting of the Grade II listed buildings and the character and appearance of the conservation area, causing less than substantial harm that was not outweighed by the public benefits of the proposal.
