Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host building and the street scene

What decided it

The proposed front extensions would materially and unacceptably harm the character and appearance of the host building, the terrace and the street scene, and this harm clearly outweighed the benefits of improved living accommodation and energy efficiency.

The benefits of improved living accommodation and energy efficiency were outweighed by the material harm to the character, appearance and historic significance of the host building and street scene caused by the front extensions.
