Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and local area bearing in mind the special regard that should be paid to the desirability of preserving the setting of the nearby Grade II listed buildings, 15 and 17 Farquhar Road, and the extent to which it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Edgbaston Conservation Area
What decided it
The removal of the traditional asymmetrical features and excessive scale of the extensions would cause less than substantial harm to the conservation area and setting of listed buildings with no public benefits presented to justify this harm.
