Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Devisdale Conservation Area
- The effect of the appeal scheme on the living conditions of the occupiers of Number 5 Hill Rise with particular regard to light and outlook
What decided it
The proposed development would harm the significance of the Devisdale Conservation Area through its lack of subservience, incompatible design, and materials, and this less than substantial harm was not outweighed by the limited public benefits of the scheme.
