Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area and whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Churchtown Conservation Area
- the effect on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, particularly in regard to outlook, noise and disturbance
What decided it
The harm to the character and appearance of the Churchtown Conservation Area caused by the scale and design of the side extension and boundary treatment was not outweighed by the public benefits of the proposal, contrary to paragraph 212 of the NPPF and Policy NH12 of the Local Plan for Sefton.
Framework references: 212
