Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, including the Totteridge Conservation Area
  • Protected species, namely bats

What decided it

The proposal would not cause harm to the character and appearance of the conservation area or to protected species, and the high quality design with complementary materials would enhance the dwelling.
