Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

- Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Studdridge Street Conservation Area
- The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers with particular regard to privacy
What decided it
The proposal would harm the character and appearance of the conservation area by disrupting the symmetry and rhythm of the rear projections and introducing uncharacteristic materials, and would cause harmful loss of privacy to neighbouring occupiers, with no public benefit to justify these harms.
