Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the development preserves or enhances the character or appearance of the Minet Estate Conservation Area
What decided it
The outbuilding's form, size, materials and flat-roofed design would conflict with and detract from the established character and appearance of the conservation area, and the private benefits do not outweigh the great weight afforded to harm to the designated heritage asset.
The less than substantial harm to the conservation area outweighed the limited private benefits of additional residential space and home-working environment, which do not constitute public benefits.
