Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host property and mews and whether the development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Pembridge Conservation Area
- The living conditions of the occupiers of properties to the rear boundary of the site, with particular regard to privacy
What decided it
The unacceptable harm to the historic roofscape and character of the Pembridge Conservation Area caused by the proposed dormers, with no public benefits to outweigh this harm, outweighed the absence of adverse effects on neighbouring living conditions.
