Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, having special regard to the effect on relevant designated heritage assets and the Cornwall National Landscape
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, with particular regard to privacy, outlook, light and noise
What decided it
The harm to the character and appearance of the Conservation Area and the setting of the Grade II listed building, resulting from the prominent and incongruous positioning of the balcony above the roofline, outweighs the limited private and economic benefits of the proposal.
