Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of No 59 Lower Way in regard to privacy
  • Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Chickerell Conservation Area

What decided it

The proposal would cause significant and unacceptable harm to the privacy of neighbouring occupiers and would fail to preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the Conservation Area, with no public benefits sufficient to outweigh these harms.
