Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the appeal scheme on the character and appearance of the area
- The effect on flooding
What decided it
The parking of vehicles dominating the frontage and lack of planting diminishes the verdant character of the area and harms the setting of the locally listed building, conflicting with development plan policies and the Framework.
The limited benefits arising from the additional parking provided by the appeal scheme are outweighed by the harms to character and appearance and the setting of the locally listed building and increased flood risk.
Plan policies cited: Policy DMP1, Policy DMP7, Policy DMP9A, Policy DMP9B, Policy D3 of the London Plan, Policy HC1 of the London Plan
