Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host building and the surrounding area, including whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the Harrow on the Hill Conservation Area and whether the development would preserve the setting of the Old Pye House and Former St Mary's Mission Hall as Grade II listed buildings
  • Whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers, having regard to outlook (Appeal B only)

What decided it

The visually subordinate nature and careful siting of the proposed alterations within the existing roof structure meant they would not harm the character and appearance of the conservation area or the setting of the listed buildings.
