Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposals would preserve the Grade II listed 54-56, 58-60 and 62-64 Canonbury Park South, or any features of special architectural or historic interest, including setting
- whether the proposals would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Canonbury Conservation Area
What decided it
The first-floor rear extension would cause less than substantial harm to the listed building and conservation area that would not be outweighed by the minor public benefits claimed, particularly the provision of a family bathroom which is not essential given the dwelling's size and existing facilities.
The less than substantial harm to the listed building and conservation area was not outweighed by the minor public benefits of the proposal, particularly the provision of a family bathroom.
