Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the North Tottenham Conservation Area, along with its effect on the setting of the adjacent Grade II listed building
- The effect of the development on the living conditions of neighbouring residents, with regard to outlook
What decided it
The harmful effects to the significance of both the conservation area and the adjacent listed building, to which great weight was attached, tipped the balance against the appeal scheme and were not outweighed by the modest social and economic benefits of the proposal.
The modest social and economic benefits of additional housing supply and a retail unit were outweighed by the harmful effects to the significance of the conservation area and the adjacent listed building, to which great weight was attached, resulting in the balance tipping against the proposal.
