Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host property and the Portchester Road Conservation Area
- Whether the proposed development would provide suitable living conditions for future residents with respect to internal accommodation and external garden space
- The effect of the proposed development on the integrity of designated European Sites
What decided it
The harm to the designated heritage asset outweighed the public benefits of additional housing, and the inadequate provision of outdoor garden space failed to meet standards for future residents' living conditions.
The public benefits of additional housing provision were outweighed by the less than substantial harm to the conservation area and the failure to provide suitable living conditions for future residents.
