Requires development to respect site/surroundings in siting, layout, scale, form, design (b); not adversely affect townscape character (c); not harm resident amenity or locality character (d); and regard energy reduction best practice (e).

Environment Policy 35
Permits only development in Conservation Areas that preserves or enhances character/appearance and protects special features. Tested against the front door's visibility and uPVC material; accepted as an improvement preserving character through maintenance, despite not enhancing, given few original doors remain.
