What decided it
The proposal would not preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the De Beauvoir Conservation Area due to its visibility in wider street views and disruption of the unbroken roofscape, and the private benefits to the appellant did not outweigh the less than substantial harm to the heritage asset.
