Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the personal circumstance, need for the proposed development, and the consequences of a dismissed appeal for the appellant's family, having regard to the living conditions
- whether the proposal would preserve the grade II listed building, Lawn House and garden wall and gate, or its setting or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses
- whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Hotham Conservation Area
What decided it
The less than substantial but considerable harm to the significance of the designated heritage assets, to which great weight must be afforded, was not outweighed by the limited public benefits and personal circumstances of the appellant's family.
