Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area, including whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of Marley Hill Conservation Area
What decided it
The scale, design, siting and materials of the outbuilding cause unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the Conservation Area that cannot be adequately mitigated, and the limited private benefits do not outweigh the statutory duty to preserve or enhance the heritage asset.
