Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

the effect of the proposal on designated heritage assets, including whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the conservation area, and the effect of the proposal on the setting of the Goldsmith's Almshouses
the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties

What decided it

The proposal would cause less than substantial but considerable harm to the significance of designated heritage assets (the conservation area and listed building setting) which was not outweighed by the limited public benefits, and would also harm the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through increased overlooking.
