Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Brockley Conservation Area
  • The effect upon the integration, permeability and cohesiveness of the local neighbourhood
  • Whether the proposed development would result in harm to pedestrian safety on Ashby Road

What decided it

The proposal would cause less than substantial harm to the significance of the designated conservation area with no sufficient public benefits to outweigh this harm, and would additionally create unacceptable effects on neighbourhood permeability and pedestrian safety.
