Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host property, and whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Dartmouth Park Conservation Area
- the living conditions of neighbouring residents, with particular regard to privacy
What decided it
The modest scale and subordinate nature of the proposed terrace, combined with its limited visibility from the street scene and the absence of significant overlooking harm, meant the development would preserve the character and appearance of the conservation area and accord with the development plan.
