Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Beckenham Town Centre Conservation Area

What decided it

The less than substantial but considerable harm to the conservation area's significance, to which great weight must be given, is not outweighed by the limited public benefits of one additional housing unit and modest economic gains.
