Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether or not the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Wandsworth Conservation Area
  • The impact of the proposal on the living conditions of occupants of Number 7 Skydec Apartments
  • Whether or not there is adequate refuse and cycle storage at the site

What decided it

The proposed development would cause less than substantial harm to the character and appearance of the Wandsworth Conservation Area and would result in unacceptable overlooking and loss of privacy to neighbouring occupants, harms that outweigh the limited public benefit of providing one additional dwelling.
