Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the Kensington Conservation Area
- The living conditions of the adjacent occupants with particular regard to noise associated with the air conditioning unit
What decided it
The proposed infill extension would appear as uncharacteristic development that would fail to preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the conservation area, and insufficient information was provided to demonstrate that noise from the air conditioning unit could be appropriately mitigated.
