Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would preserve a Grade II listed building known as 87-102, Mount Street W1 and any of the features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses
  • The extent to which it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Mayfair Conservation Area

What decided it

The proposal would introduce highly incongruent and jarring design elements (panelled doors with dog motifs, ornate lamps, and ornate lead canopy) that would harm the special interest of the listed building and the character and appearance of the conservation area, with no identified public benefits to outweigh this harm.

Framework references: 203, 205, 206, 208
