Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character and the appearance of the West Putney Conservation Area.
What decided it
The harm to the character and appearance of the West Putney Conservation Area caused by the additional storey substantially increasing the building's prominence and exacerbating its uncharacteristic scale outweighed the public benefits of new housing delivery and other improvements.
