- Procedure

- Inspector
- Bennett-Matthews S
Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the White Horse public house and whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Husborne Crawley Conservation Area
- the living conditions of the occupants of neighbouring residential properties and in particular the residents of No. 3 Mill Road with reference to noise, odour and disturbance
What decided it
The design, materials and siting of the extension fail to preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the conservation area, and insufficient evidence demonstrates that the economic benefits outweigh the heritage harm or that living conditions of neighbours would be protected.
