Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the UPVC windows, door and dormer window preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Wellington Conservation Area

What decided it

The UPVC windows and door cause less than substantial harm to the significance of the Wellington Conservation Area as a designated heritage asset, and the public benefits do not outweigh the great weight that must be given to its conservation.
