Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development upon the designated heritage assets: Stanley Park Conservation Area and the Stanley Park grade II* registered park and garden
- The living conditions of occupiers of neighbouring properties, with particular regard to outlook and privacy
- Highway safety, with particular regard to parking availability
What decided it
The proposals would cause less than substantial but clear harm to the significance of the Stanley Park Conservation Area and the grade II* registered park and garden, combined with unacceptable harm to the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through loss of outlook and increased sense of enclosure, which could not be outweighed by the modest private benefits of additional living space.
