Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the area including the Conservation Area

What decided it

The harm to the character and appearance of the Conservation Area, found to be less than substantial but of considerable importance and weight, was not outweighed by the unsubstantiated public benefits claimed by the appellant.
