Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the development preserves the Grade II listed building known as 1 Lockyer Place or any features of special architectural and historic interest which it possesses
  • Whether the requirements of the notice exceed what is necessary for restoring the building to its condition before the works were carried out

What decided it

The UPVC window does not preserve the character and appearance of the Grade II listed building or the conservation area, causing less than substantial harm to heritage assets with no public benefits to outweigh this harm.
