Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and local area, with reference to Belgravia Conservation Area
- The effect of the proposal on undeveloped land, with reference to soil depth
- The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of neighbouring residential occupiers, with reference to outlook and privacy
What decided it
The substantial harm to the character and appearance of the appeal dwelling as a non-designated heritage asset, combined with significant harm to neighbouring living conditions and loss of sustainable planting ground, substantially outweighed the private benefits of the proposal.
