What decided it
The less than substantial harm to the character and appearance of the Newlyn Conservation Area, to which great weight must be given, was not outweighed by the limited public benefits of the proposal.
Less than substantial harm to the conservation area's special significance, to which great weight must be attributed, was weighed against limited public benefits comprising maintenance need, improved care facilities, and operational benefits; the harm outweighed the benefits.
