Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the unauthorised works preserve the special architectural or historic interest or setting of the listed building, whether they preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the conservation area and whether the significance of the heritage assets is harmed

What decided it

The unauthorised works fail to preserve the special architectural or historic interest of the listed building and conservation area, and the harm is not outweighed by any public benefits.

Framework references: 215

Plan policies cited: HC1(C) of the London Plan 2021, DH1 of the Local Plan (2023), DH2 of the Local Plan (2023)
