Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal, including its effect on protected trees, preserves or enhances the character or appearance of the Ealing Common Conservation Area

What decided it

The prominent and incongruous inverted dormer and the likely loss of trees to accommodate the swimming pool would cause less than substantial harm to the conservation area that is not outweighed by public benefits.

Framework references: 199, 200, 202
