Permits only development preserving/enhancing Conservation Area character. Existing building adds no value; proposal's design more in keeping despite increase in scale, not visible from streets, no Conservation Officer objection.
Community Policy 6
Permits health care facilities if accessible, no over-concentration, no amenity/highway harm. Town centre site with public parking/transport satisfies accessibility; mixed-use zoning and appointment-based operation avoid amenity issues.
