®Planning appeal decision
33 Monument Green, WEYBRIDGE, Surrey, KT13 8QJ
single storey rear extension to provide staff welfare room
- Authority
- Elmbridge Borough Council
- Appeal type
- minor · Planning Appeal
- Procedure
- Written Representations
- Development
- employment-industrial · Other minor developments
- Inspector
- Everitt E
Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host building and the surrounding area, including the Weybridge Monument Green Conservation Area
- the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties, with particular regard to outlook
What decided it
The proposed extension would fail to preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the Conservation Area by eroding the contribution of the appeal property to its significance and conflicting with the historic pattern of development, and this less than substantial harm was not outweighed by the limited public benefits of the proposal.
