Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Brockley Conservation Area
- the effect the development would have on the living conditions of neighbouring residents
What decided it
The first-floor extension would create a disproportionate two-storey outrigger that disrupts the architectural hierarchy of the terrace and fails to preserve the character and appearance of the Brockley Conservation Area, conflicting with the development plan and NPPF with no material considerations to outweigh the conflict.
