Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the Brockley Conservation Area
  • Whether suitable space would be provided to accommodate the required number of waste and recycling bins

What decided it

The permanent harm to the significance of the designated heritage asset caused by the proposal's scale, mass and siting, and the loss of mature trees, outweighed the public benefits of providing a single dwelling in a sustainable location.
