Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development upon Longlands Road Conservation Area
- The effect of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the pair of semi-detached properties and the area, with particular regard to its scale and design
- Fire safety
What decided it
The harm to the conservation area caused by infilling an important open space with a discordant form that conflicts with the established character of inter-war semi-detached properties, combined with insufficient fire safety information, outweighed the limited public benefits of a single additional dwelling.
