Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the site and surrounding area, with particular regard to the site's location within the Brockley Conservation Area

What decided it

The position, design and number of the rooflights (three rather than two) and their misalignment with the existing fenestration pattern caused less than substantial harm to the conservation area that could not be justified by any identified public benefits.
