Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would preserve the features of special architectural or historic interest of the School House and preserve the character or appearance of the Conservation Area
- The likely effect upon the living conditions of neighbouring residents, having particular regard to the light and outlook of the occupiers of Nos.1 and 2 The Old School
What decided it
The close proximity of the tall, solid flank wall of the proposed extension would reduce natural light to the facing windows of 1 The Old School and appear dominant and oppressive in outlook, thereby eroding living conditions for neighbouring occupiers in breach of Core Policy 57(vii).
