Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Ealing Town Centre Conservation Area
- The effect on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers
- Whether it would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers
- Whether it would provide acceptable storage for refuse, recycling and bicycles and the effect on parking demand
What decided it
The proposed development would cause less than substantial harm to the conservation area which, when weighed against the limited public benefits of additional accommodation, would not be justified, and the proposal would also fail to provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers and neighbouring occupiers.
