Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the host property and the area, including whether it preserves or enhances the character or appearance of the Cuckoo Estate Conservation Area
The living conditions of the neighbouring occupiers at 93 and 97 Greatdown Road, with particular regard to outlook, privacy and the availability of natural light

What decided it

The development harms the character and appearance of the Cuckoo Estate Conservation Area and causes significant harm to neighbouring living conditions through overlooking and loss of privacy, with no public benefits to outweigh the considerable importance of the heritage harm.

The harm to the designated heritage asset is a matter of considerable importance; any benefits are largely restricted to the occupants' own living conditions and do not outweigh the harm to the conservation area and neighbouring amenity.
