Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the surrounding area, including whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of The Chase Conservation Area.
What decided it
The two-storey rear extension would cause less than substantial harm to the conservation area's character and appearance by obscuring a characteristic architectural feature and appearing as an overbearing, dominant intervention, and the modest public benefits do not outweigh this harm and the great weight required to be given to conservation.
