Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area and the Turnham Green Conservation Area
  • the living conditions of future occupiers with particular regard to noise and activity levels
  • whether the development would comply with the development plan strategy in respect of carbon reduction and sustainability

What decided it

The harm to the significance of the Turnham Green Conservation Area through the incongruous design of the replacement dwelling, combined with failure to demonstrate compliance with carbon reduction and sustainability policies, outweighed the limited public benefits of the proposal.
