Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would preserve the Grade II* listed building known as Greys Inn Square Nos 12, 13 and 14, or any features of special architectural or historic interest it possesses
  • Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Bloomsbury Conservation Area

What decided it

The proposed gates would preserve the significance of the listed building and the character of the conservation area through their sensitive, contextually-led design that harmonises with the existing architecture and detailing of the site.
