Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, including whether the character or appearance of the Stamford Conservation Area would be preserved or enhanced
- the living conditions of the future occupiers of the proposed dwelling and occupiers of No 20, with particular regard to privacy, noise and disturbance
What decided it
The proposed change of use and plot subdivision would fail to preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the Stamford Conservation Area, and the modest public benefits would not outweigh the less than substantial harm to this designated heritage asset.
