Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area and whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Thurloe Estate and Smith's Charity Conservation Area
What decided it
The modest depth of the extension, its glazed design retaining views of existing brickwork, and its integration within the existing variety of rear protrusions meant it would preserve rather than harm the character and appearance of the conservation area.
