Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Highgate Conservation Area
What decided it
The limited public benefits of the proposal would not outweigh the less than substantial harm to the significance of the Highgate Conservation Area caused by the incongruous and overbearing design of the mansard roof extension.
The limited public benefits of housing delivery and economic benefits were outweighed by the less than substantial harm to the significance of the Highgate Conservation Area.
