Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host property and whether the character or appearance of the Kew Green Conservation Area would be preserved or enhanced

What decided it

The considerable importance and weight attached to the harm caused to the significance of the heritage asset outweighs the small public benefits of the proposal.

The less than substantial harm to the significance of the conservation area and locally listed building was weighed against the limited public benefits of increased family space and ridge tile reinstatement, with the harm outweighing the benefits.
