Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character or appearance of the host building and the wider Sibella Road Conservation Area
What decided it
The scale and design of the extension would be unsympathetic to the appearance and characteristics of the host building and would cause less than substantial harm to the conservation area, which could not be outweighed by the very limited public benefits of the scheme.
The less than substantial harm to the Sibella Road Conservation Area was weighed against limited public benefits such as a boost to the local economy, which carried very limited weight; the harm was not outweighed by any public benefits or other material considerations.
