Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the street scene and whether or not it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Ladbroke Conservation Area
What decided it
The shopfront causes less than substantial harm to the character and appearance of the conservation area, and there are no material considerations or public benefits that outweigh this harm or justify departure from the development plan.
The less than substantial harm to the character and appearance of the Ladbroke Conservation Area was weighed against the claimed public benefits of the proposal, but no compelling evidence or clear and convincing justification was found to justify the harm.
