Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the island with particular regard to its relationship with adjacent plots and the special landscape character of the River Thames
What decided it
The summerhouse and associated structures, although visible from the river, are modest in scale and design, blending with the varied waterfront development on the island and not harming the special landscape character of the River Thames.
