Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area, with particular reference to the effect on the character and appearance of the Charterhouse Square Conservation Area, the settings of nearby listed buildings and protected local views
What decided it
The difference in height of the structure compared to the previously approved scheme produces only limited additional visual impact and no material harm to the character and appearance of the conservation area, listed building settings, or protected views.
The significant public benefits of delivering 5G technology and digital infrastructure, supported by London Plan and Framework policies, weigh strongly in favour of the scheme, with no identified harm to character and appearance or heritage assets.
