Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Barnsbury Conservation Area, including with regard to trees
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers with particular regard to light and sense of enclosure relating to the rear extension
What decided it
The harm to the character and appearance of the Barnsbury Conservation Area caused by the bulky and conspicuous roof and rear extensions outweighed the limited public benefits of the scheme.
