Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed development would preserve the listed building or any features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses
- whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Royal Hospital Conservation Area
What decided it
The significant harm to the special interest of the listed building and the character of the conservation area, coupled with the absence of weighty public benefits, clearly outweighed the modest benefit of improved family accommodation.
The substantial harm to the listed building and conservation area, coupled with no convincing public benefit, outweighed the modest public benefit of an improved family home.
