Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposals would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Cornwall Conservation Area
  • Its effect on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers

What decided it

The substantial erosion of the roofscape's original character through existing developments meant the proposed mansard would not cause additional harm to the conservation area's character or appearance, and its setback design would not adversely affect neighbouring living conditions.
