Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed external soil and vent pipe on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the Hartley Wintney Conservation Area

What decided it

The very limited degree of harm to the conservation area, arising from the pipe's location on a largely screened front elevation already subject to modern alterations, was outweighed by the modest public benefit of enabling the dwelling to be adapted to meet its occupants' needs.

The limited degree of harm to the character and appearance of the conservation area was outweighed by the modest public benefit of facilitating the provision of a first-floor WC and supporting the dwelling's continued residential use
