Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host building and the area, including whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Newington Green Conservation Area

What decided it

The siting of the balcony on the predominantly uninterrupted and unaltered rear elevations would cause less than substantial harm to the significance of the conservation area, with no public benefits to outweigh this harm.

Plan policies cited: Policy HC1 of The London Plan (2021), Policy CS9 of Islington's Core Strategy (2011), Policy DM2.1 of Islington's Local Plan: Development Management Policies document (2013), Policy DM2.3 of Islington's Local Plan: Development Management Policies document (2013)
