Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the CA
  • the living conditions of the occupiers of number 28 Holroyd Mill Lane with regard to outlook and daylight

What decided it

The development fails to preserve the character and appearance of the conservation area and causes unacceptable harm to the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through loss of outlook and daylight, with the public benefits not outweighing the harm to the designated heritage asset.

Framework references: 215, 135
