Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the roller shutter and associated housing affect the features of special architectural and historic interest that 6 Upper Olland Street possesses

What decided it

The harm to the listed building's special architectural and historic interest caused by the roller shutter and associated features cannot be outweighed by the modest security and business viability benefits, given the requirement to give great weight to heritage conservation.
