Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host property and the Wandsworth Town Conservation Area
- whether or not the proposal would make adequate provision for refuse and recycling
- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties with particular regard to enclosure
- whether or not the proposal would provide adequate cycle parking
What decided it
The unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the Wandsworth Town Conservation Area caused by the disproportionate extensions and unbalanced proportions of the host building, combined with inadequate refuse and recycling provision, outweighed the limited public benefits of the proposal.
