Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal upon the character or appearance of the East Greenwich Conservation Area (CA), including the host property
- the effect of the proposal upon the housing stock and the local environment
- the effect of the proposal upon trees
- whether the proposal would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers with particular regard to noise and disturbance
What decided it
The less than substantial harm to the character and appearance of the East Greenwich Conservation Area, to which great weight must be attached, was not outweighed by the limited public benefits of the proposal.
The less than substantial harm to the conservation area, to which great weight must be attached, was not outweighed by the benefits of delivering four additional housing units, modest economic benefits during construction, and limited environmental benefits from PV panels and green roof.
