Decision Maker's Conclusion
- The development is visually obtrusive and fails to protect the historic and architectural heritage of Ballylongford, detracting from the Architectural Conservation Area.
- The flue is incompatible with the special character of the Protected Structure and negatively impacts the setting of adjoining protected structures.
- The proposal fails to respect the existing streetscape or the historic ACA environment, making it contrary to proper planning and sustainable development.
