Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Brompton Conservation Area

What decided it

The new closet wing's form, design and materials, combined with the lift's concealed position and the retention of the building's internal hierarchy, would preserve the special architectural and historic interest of the listed building and the character and appearance of the conservation area.
