Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area, including whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Sudbury Hill Conservation Area as well as its effect on non-designated heritage assets
- Whether the development would provide acceptable living conditions in terms of noise
What decided it
The harm to the character and appearance of the Sudbury Hill Conservation Area and the setting and significance of the non-designated heritage assets, particularly the prominent and visually incongruous side extension, outweighed the public benefits of the scheme including housing provision.
