Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the appeal dwelling and that of the Pimlico Conservation Area (PCA), and the setting of the Peabody Avenue Conservation Area (PACA).

What decided it

The proposed mansard roof extension would appear as an unduly prominent and incongruous addition that would fail to preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the Pimlico Conservation Area and would cause substantial harm to the appeal dwelling as a Non-Designated Heritage Asset, which outweighs the private benefits of the proposal.
