Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the host property and the character and appearance of the surrounding area, with particular regard to the spatial and visual openness of the area, including whether the development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Conservation Area, and its effect on the setting of the Conservation Area and the setting of the host property as a building of local interest
What decided it
The enclosed and hidden nature of the main part of the appeal site, combined with its limited visual prominence from public vantage points and its relationship to existing modern development outside the Conservation Area, meant the proposed residential development would not harm the character and appearance of the surrounding area or the significance of the Conservation Area.
