Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would preserve a Grade II listed building known as '113 and 115 South Street' and any features of special architectural or historic interest it possesses
- The effect on the character and appearance of the area
- The setting of the Dorking Conservation Area
What decided it
The substantial scale, massing and gable-ended roof form of the proposed extension would erode the legibility and architectural integrity of the listed building and undermine the important gap in the streetscene, resulting in harm that outweighs the modest public benefits.
