Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed dormers on the character and appearance of the host building, the terrace of which it forms part, and the Tunbridge Wells Conservation Area
What decided it
The proposed front dormer would cause less than substantial harm to the conservation area's character and appearance, and this harm could not be outweighed by the minimal public benefit, especially given the precedent implications for the street.
