Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and that of the local area, with reference to the Ladywell Conservation Area

What decided it

The proposal would result in substantial harm to the Non-Designated Heritage Asset status of the appeal property and less than substantial harm to the Conservation Area through loss of its defined spatial characteristics, which cannot be outweighed by the private benefit of off-street parking.

Framework references: 203, 16

Plan policies cited: Policy 15, Policy 16, Policy DM30, Policy DM31, Policy DM36, Policy DM37, section 6.7 of the Alterations and Extensions Supplementary Planning Document (2019), policy HC1 of the London Plan (2021)
