Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host property and the area, including whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Canons Park Estate Conservation Area
What decided it
The significant harm to the character and appearance of the Canons Park Estate Conservation Area caused by the eclectic and incoherent design of the proposed alterations, particularly the steeply pitched roof and porch which conflict with the building's modernist style, is not outweighed by the modest public benefits of additional living accommodation.
