Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the development would preserve a Grade II listed building, namely the Trafalgar Tavern, Park Row, Greenwich SE10 9NW, or its setting or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses
- Whether the development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Greenwich Park Conservation Area
- The effect on the Outstanding Universal Value of the World Heritage Site
- Whether the proposed glazed canopy and supporting posts would prejudice the safe and unrestricted access for vehicles, pedestrian and cyclists
What decided it
The erosion of openness at the setting of the Grade II listed building and its prominence in the World Heritage Site interface with the River Thames, combined with insufficient public benefits to outweigh the less than substantial heritage harm.
