Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on outdoor open space at the site
  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the local area and the extent to which it would preserve, or enhance, the character or appearance of the Victoria Park Conservation Area and the setting of the adjacent locally listed buildings

What decided it

The proposal would cause noticeable and enduring harm to the character and appearance of the conservation area and the setting of locally listed buildings through its incongruous rooftop extension, which could not be justified by the limited public benefits offered.
