Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area, with particular regard to the Eckington and Renishaw Park Conservation Area

What decided it

The proposed contemporary extension would cause less than substantial harm to the significance of the Conservation Area by introducing incongruous modern design and materials that conflict with the traditional character, and no public benefits were identified to outweigh this harm.
