Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the dwelling and the surrounds, including the Tenterden Conservation Area

What decided it

The backland location with limited public visibility, contemporary design approach, and positioning that maintains the host building as the foremost element, combined with removal of existing structures, results in a neutral effect that preserves the conservation area character.

Framework references: 135
