Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Osborn Road Conservation Area
  • The effect on the setting of the dwelling at the appeal site which has the status of a grade two Listed Building

What decided it

The harm to the conservation area and the setting of the listed building arising from the introduction of a building into the front garden, contrary to the established pattern of development, substantially outweighed the limited benefit of providing covered parking.

The benefits of the scheme, limited to the provision of parking within a building, were substantially outweighed by the adverse effects on the conservation area and listed building setting
