Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host building and surrounding area
  • Whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Shottery Conservation Area, including the effect of the proposal on the appeal building as a non-designated heritage asset

What decided it

The harm to the character and appearance of the conservation area and the non-designated heritage asset, combined with the failure to preserve or enhance these assets, outweighed the modest public benefits of the proposal.
