Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host property and the area, including the Castelnau Conservation Area and the adjacent Metropolitan Open Land
What decided it
The proposed extension would be excessively large, dominant and incompatible with the modest character of the coach house, and would encroach into and undermine the open and green appearance of the site and nearby Metropolitan Open Land, causing less than substantial harm to the Conservation Area that is not outweighed by the limited public benefits.
