Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Bungalow Estate Conservation Area (BECA)
What decided it
The height of the proposed extension extending close to the main roof ridge would significantly reduce the first-floor side gap and harm the openness and coherent character of the conservation area, with limited public benefits to justify the harm.
less than substantial harm to the Bungalow Estate Conservation Area was not outweighed by the limited private benefits of improved accommodation and more efficient use of space
