Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development upon the character or appearance of the Blackheath Conservation Area

What decided it

The siting, scale, height, width and overall massing of the proposed dwelling would harm the open and spacious character of the Blackheath Conservation Area, and the limited public benefits of a single dwelling do not outweigh this harm to which great weight must be attached.
