Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the steps required by the enforcement notice exceed what is necessary to remedy the breach of planning control or injury to amenity (ground f)
  • Whether the period specified in the enforcement notice for compliance is reasonable (ground g)
  • The effect of the alternative scheme on the character and appearance of the surrounding area, having particular regard to its effect upon the character or appearance of The Mall Conservation Area and the setting of Listed Buildings and Buildings of Merit

What decided it

The alternative scheme's lower roof structure would allow the relationship between the Great West Road corridor and the rear elevations of listed buildings to be better appreciated, and would not cause harm to the setting of listed buildings, the character or appearance of the conservation area, or Buildings of Merit.
