Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the area including whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Hackney Road Conservation Area
What decided it
The rear element's simple form, materiality, appearance and recessed design would provide an appropriate transition between historic and modern elements and would be largely unnoticeable from the street due to the tight urban context, thereby preserving the character and appearance of the conservation area.
