Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Isleworth Riverside Conservation Area
- Whether the proposal would provide adequate living conditions for future residents of the flats, with particular reference to external amenity space
What decided it
The proposal would result in less-than-substantial harm to the conservation area through the bike store and would fail to provide adequate external amenity space for future residents, contrary to the development plan, with insufficient public benefits to outweigh the heritage harm.
The limited housing supply benefit and moderate public benefits (local economy contribution, accessible location) did not outweigh the less-than-substantial harm to the significance of the designated heritage asset
