Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on designated heritage assets, including whether the proposal would preserve the Grade II listed building of 5-23, Moorland Road SW9, and whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the conservation area
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of 23 Moorland Road with particular regard to privacy
What decided it
The harm to the significance of the designated heritage assets, assessed as less than substantial but of considerable importance and weight, was not outweighed by public benefits that were limited to private amenity improvements for the occupants of the appeal property.
