Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area, with particular regard to whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Brooklands Conservation Area

What decided it

The revised design approach incorporating a pitched roof and brick detailing, which reflects the character of nearby development and preserves the conservation area's significance, distinguishes this proposal from the previous dismissed appeal and justifies allowing the appeal.
