Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal, with particular reference to the single storey building, would preserve a Grade II listed building and any features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses and the extent to which it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Wandsworth Common Conservation Area
  • Whether the proposal would make adequate provision for waste storage and servicing

What decided it

The proposal would cause less than substantial but considerable harm to the heritage assets, and the claimed public benefits were insufficient to outweigh this harm when weighed against the great weight attached to the conservation of the listed building and conservation area.

Framework references: 205, 206, 208, 99
