Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, including the Surrey Hills National Landscape and Area of Great Landscape Value
- the effect of the proposal on the significance of the Peaslake Conservation Area as a designated heritage asset, through development in its setting
What decided it
The proposed dwelling and particularly the front parking area would cause unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the area and to the significance of the Peaslake Conservation Area through development in its setting, which could not be justified by the moderate benefits of housing supply and economic contribution.
