Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Enfield Town Conservation Area
  • whether the proposal would be acceptable with regard to flood risk
  • the transport and highways effects of the proposed development

What decided it

The single-storey scale and deferential design of the office, combined with its excellent public transport accessibility and the appellant's control of sufficient land for flood mitigation, allowed the appeal despite the site's location within a conservation area and flood risk zones.
