Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Sheen Mortlake Conservation Area and its effect on the setting of Buildings of Townscape Merit
  • Whether the proposal would be appropriate in respect of flood risk and structural stability
  • Whether the proposal would provide an appropriate provision of affordable housing

What decided it

The proposal would fail to preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the Sheen Mortlake Conservation Area and would cause harm to the setting of Buildings of Townscape Merit, with insufficient public benefits to outweigh this harm.
