Astley-Serougi B

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area, including the significance of the CA through development within its setting
  • whether the proposed development would provide an adequate space heating demand with regard to local policy

What decided it

The proposed development's scale, massing, and use of multiple incongruous external materials would unacceptably harm the character of the streetscape and the significance of the adjacent Conservation Area, combined with the failure to meet the required space heating demand standard.
